When in Velocity generating HTML

{{/html}}

{{/velocity}}

What is the velocity macro (or code snippet) to make it work?

As documented the {{display}} or {{include}} does not work from within the velocity and/or html macro.

They do work. Where did you see that in the doc? Could you give the link so that we fix it? Thanks -Vincent

Documentation could maybe be improved by adding what to do when this calling from within Velocity/html is required

Thanks Thomas, But the code in the example is just to show the outline... Believe me: I need HTML around the foreach loop to set enclosing div's and jquery and/or bootstrap classes But your help was great; including the wiki="true" parameter in the html macro makes the display work fine...

Using {{display}} or {{include}} works well in Velocity. But html macro disable wiki syntax by default and those are wiki syntax (see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/HTML+Macro#HParametersd...). That said there is no reason to use html in the example you are giving (use {{include}} instead of #includeInContex).

The only issue that I know of is related to the include macro in the sense that it does work when called from a velocity block, but it may not work when you expect it to. The problematic usecase is when you may do something like this: {{velocity}} {{include reference="document defining some velocity variables or macros"}} #callMacroDefinedInIncludedDoc() {{/velocity}} In the above case, the order of execution may mess with your expectations, since velocity would execute first and the called macro is not yet defined/known at that moment. The fix for such a situation is to call the include before (and outside of) the velocity macro. Thanks, Eduard On Fri, Oct 7, 2016 at 6:51 PM, Gerritjan Koekkoek <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi Vincent,

I must admit the extension Include-macro en Display-macro documentation does not contain any suggestion that it does not work.

I posted my question as I'm very sure I came across this statement that it would not work in some doc I found via google search ... when I come across it again I will notify you...
