Sort of. I am thinking of ways to include other executable scripts into 
views. I was just wondering how Solar does it. In plain Jane code I am 
thinking of:
<?php echo $this->header; ?>
<?php include 'login_box.php'; ?>
<div>.... blah blah ...</div>

Maybe partials are a better term than composites...

In something I am working on for work I have created an attachComponent 
method that is in the view object that will allow for the calling of 
components from with the view and will parse the component view in 
similar fashion to the parsing of a normal view. I was just wondering if 
there was something in Solar that already did this, or if there was view 
logic that could be applied that would allow for this.
