Is it possible to override the template in the CMF skin using the Zope 3: page browser?

Question

I am trying to override the view provided by the CMF skin layer <browser:page ...with the same attribute name=. Is it possible in Plone or browser views override other browser types?

Answer 1

(It's a little late, but what the hell)

CMF layer fields override browser views. That is why you should prefix the @@browser name in the URL, i.e. eliminate it and make sure that the browser is being viewed instead of the CMF skin template.

In short, if you put @@forward, the browser will be overridden, otherwise not.

i.e:

localhost:8080/Plone/@@myview 

:

localhost:8080/Plone/myview

, - CMF tal:define View, @@myview. BrowserViews - CMF.
