nesting a Smarty Tag within a UDT

[durangoduf]

I searched to see if this has already been covered, but couldn't find anything...

(Using CMSMS 0.13) I created a User Defined Tag for a vertical menu that I wanted on certain pages with a nested Menu Module tag, hoping I could pass the "start_element" parameter depending on which page I'm using it. Unfortunately I can't get it to accept the code.

Is it possible to nest tags like this? Or is there a better approach?

TIA,
Duffy

FWIW here's the code:

Code: Select all

echo'     <div id="menu_vert">';
echo'        <h4>In This Newsletter:</h4>';
echo'         <h2 class="accessibility">Navigation</h2>';
{cms_module module="menumanager" template="newsletter-vert" start_element="'.$params['start'].'" collapse="0"};
echo'      <hr />';
echo'      </div>';
echo' <div class="hr"></div>';

why do this in a udt,

{menu start_element=$page_alias} should do the trick.
