Subdirectories and resource paths in Mako

I tried using subdirectories to render templates in PYlons:

return render_response("/main/'standard.html")

this failed, how does one pass templates from other
directories or
subdirecotires?

Also, for static resources, like images or CSS files that
actually are
on the proxy server proxying for the Paster server, how can
I pass a
sort of "/media" path to my templates that would
always be resolved no
matter how deep the links are that are mapped?

Thanks

Okay, I dug...

I edited the load_enviroment to taste, but I still get
errors:

def load_environment(global_conf={}, app_conf={}):

    map = make_map(global_conf, app_conf)

    # Setup our paths

    root_path =
os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))

    paths = {'root_path': root_path,

             'controllers': os.path.join(root_path,
'controllers'),

             'templates': [os.path.join(root_path, path) for
path in 

                           ('components', 'templates',
'foo')],

             'static_files': os.path.join(root_path,
'public')

             }


the path foo is not recognized when I try to render a
template from
it:

render_response('foo/newtemplate.html')

could someone help me out?

thanks

ahhh, it should have read:

render_response('newtemplate.html')


foo just gets added to the searchpath

neat

Personally, I'm lazy, so I just use absolute paths for the
static
resources.  Hence, I do things like
"/images/foo.png".  I'm sure some
badly behaving proxy out in the wild will bite me one of
these days,
but it hasn't yet.

Use url_for and the WebHelper functions such as image_tag as
they  
will always prefix urls with the appropriate SCRIPT_NAME
value.

Then when deployed on a subdir behind a reverse proxy, use 

PrefixMiddleware:

On the subject of PrefixMiddleware, did any committers get a
chance to
check out my code submission here:

http://www.webwareforpython.org
/archives/message/20070509.232518.f56c4bb7.en.html

It even came with tests!
