Hello,
I get this:
"Error: eZTemplate @ design/panda/templates/page_mainarea.tpl:8[0]
Jan 26 2004 16:42:00

Unknown template variable 'node' in namespace ''
Error: eZTemplate @ design/panda/templates/page_mainarea.tpl:8[0]
Jan 26 2004 16:42:00"
when I have added some template code in page_mainarea.tpl. Isn't it possible to use other variables and the $node variable in this template?
Added:
Also think this goes for pagelayout.tpl. I think it very strange because it just another template, is it not?

regards,
claÜs

Is this while you're editing a new object by any chance? I've found that $node is unaccessible in all templates whilst you're doing this. It should be available at other times though.
