setting the open/close template wrapper doesn't seem to work

[RobKohr]

This was working before the 3.0 release. I use [% %] to wrap my ejs code in templates, and set it with view options like so:

app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
ejs.open = '{{';
ejs.close = '}}';
app.set('view options', {
    open: '[%',
    close: '%]'
});
app.engine('.html', require('ejs').renderFile);

but now it seems to ignore the [% %] tags.

use

app.locals.open = '[%';
app.locals.close = '%]';

Thanks, that seemed to work on the top level view, but included views it doesn't apply to. For example, I have in index.html

[%-include users/login.html %]

in login.html I have some [% %] code blocks, but they are not being recognized.

hmmm maybe the include directive is not passing along those options. open an issue for visionmedia/ejs and I'll have a look when I have a minute

Hi,

You can't expected [%-include users/login.html %] HTML file to be processed when included in ejs path. even you have set in app.js like:
app.engine('.html', require('ejs').renderFile);

please try

[%-include users/login.ejs %]

and rename the associated file.
