GetCurrentTemplatePath

Returns the fully specified path of the template containing the call to this function.

See also GetBaseTemplatePath, FileExists and ExpandPath.

Syntax GetCurrentTemplatePath()

Usage This function differs from GetBaseTemplatePath in that it will return the template path

of an included template if the call is made from a template included with a

CFINCLUDE tag; whereas GetBaseTemplatePath returns the template path of the top-

level template even when the call to GetBaseTemplatePath is actually made from an

included template.
