Hi List,

The following refers to Lasso 8.6.

This is an interesting issue - it appears that anything inside of the 'run_children' of a custom container tag won't execute 'return' in the context of another (non-container) tag. Consider the following:

[

define_tag(
'inner',
-container
);
return(run_children);
/define_tag;

define_tag(
'outer'
);
inner;
return(true); // does not return
/inner;
return(false);
/define_tag;

outer(); // false (instead of true)

]

Even though outer() should return true, that line is actually being run by run_children; and it appears that run_children does not seem to realize that it's in the context of another tag, and does not return (and stop execution of) the outer tag.

If I was executing a built-in container tag, like inline, the outer() tag would return true.

Has anyone come across this, and is there any other technique I might be missing?

Thanks,
Daniel
