Having a problem setting a hash.

Giving this:

{def $aHash = hash(
	'prop1' , 'A string'
)}
{set $aHash['two'] = 'Another string'}

or

{set $aHash.two = 'Another string'}

leaves $aHash empty... why?

You can not set a hash like that in templates, you have to create a new hash and use 'merge' to merge them.

Sorry, I made a mistake.... what I really want is to change the value of an already defined key in the hash, not creating a new one:

{def $aHash = hash( 'property' , 'A string' )}
{set $aHash.property = 'Another string' }

The template language in eZ Publish still doesn't support setting properties, so you still need to use merge.The template language in eZ Components on the other hand does ( if I remember correctly ) and it is scheduled to replace the one in eZ Publish hopefully during 2008.
