I am trying to append a viriable to a uri line based on the section the user is accessing

I was trying to use the following

{include uri ="design:leftmenu{$DesignKeys:used.section}.tpl"}

basically I have 11 section templates and each one is really basic and referenced to other templates with a uri that then calls menu bars etc.

The structure is as follows

template_section calls main_content this then accesses which section you are in and call the apprpriate menus - leftmenu(section) where the section is assign un the uri call.

thanks

Try this:

{include uri=concat("design:leftmenu",$DesignKeys:used.section,".tpl")}

First steps with operators and functions are somewhat difficult

Keep learning like we all do.

Worked like a charm - can't beleive I don't catch this one myself - have used the concat in other places.

Thanks for the help
