Hi.
Any one knows is it possible to keep templates in .tpl files not in date base..? I'd like to have possibility to edit .tpl files in Aptana studio, with syntax highlighting..
Thanks for any replay.

a) use the EditArea module (a syntax hiligher)
b) use the Template Externalizer module so that you can edit templates easier.

@ intro
Go to Layout » Templates at bottom click 'Add New Template' paste HTML there...
Go to Layout » Stylesheets at bottom click 'Add a Stylesheet' paste CSS there...
Go back to templates and attach CSS to template, orange icon to right...
