[web-devel] [Yesod] Nesting widgets

Mon Jun 6 07:41:09 CEST 2011

Hi Aren,

You should try including the widget using the ^{} syntax instead of
the ${} syntax.

See here for an example:
http://www.yesodweb.com/show/map/1/183

widget <- do
  addHamlet [hamlet| some html |]
  addCassius [cassius| some css |]
otherwidget <- do
  addHamlet [hamlet|
 <div
    ^{widget}
]
