thanks cyberman.
yes,it's a solution,but you have to save a template file in server in this way.
I mean if I create templates in admin panel,can they include each other?

Cool~~,I'll check it
PS:when I use {include file=filepath},I create a template folder in the root folder of cmsms,if I write a relative path.the file path is not "./template/file" or "../template/file",it is "../../template/file",quite strange,isn't it?

You could make them Global Content Block then put them in template...
