Let's say you want to concatenate a variable (username) and the string "is
the best":

<p tal:content="string:${username} is the best"></p>

or

<p tal:content="python:username + ' is the best' "></p>

once again, Thank you Nikos

What i was trying to do (and i did not tell you) was to wite inside a repeat
structure write
<td tal:content="item/Cost">Cost</td>
and concatenate "item/Currency" after the "item/Cost" inside the <td></td>
tag.

I finaly managed to do so by:
<td><span tal:replace="item/Cost">Cost</span>
&nbsp<span tal:replace="item/Currency">Currency</span>&nbsp</td>

If there is a better way (i cannot see how i can do this the way you
propose) please tell me.
For example i tried
<td tal:content="string:${item/Cost} + string:${item/Currency}">Cost</td>
but did not work...

I also tried
<td tal:content="python:item/Cost + python:item/Currency">Cost</td> but did
not work either

Thanks again

Try:
<td tal:content="string:${item/Cost} ${item/Currency}">Cost</td>
that should work fine

<td tal:content="string:${item/Cost}${item/Currency}">Cost</td>

and
<td tal:content="python:item['Cost']+item['Currency']">Cost</td>

should work.

Thank you both,
<td tal:content="string:${item/Cost}${item/Currency}">Cost</td> works an is
surely better than
<td align="right"><span tal:replace="item/Cost">Cost</span>
&nbsp<span
tal:replace="item/Currency">Currency</span>&nbsp</td> i was using

<td tal:content="python:item['Cost']+item['Currency']">Cost</td> however
doesnot work


Another thing is how do i add a space after ${item/Currency}?
I use space as david does between ${item/Cost} and ${item/Currency} but it
does not work out.


Thank you very much.

Depending on the object, you may need to use 'item.Cost' instead.

I use space as david does between ${item/Cost} and ${item/Currency} but it
does not work out.

I think the trailing space is inserted, but you do not see it because
the browser does not render such things. Like in your original code, you
must use a non-breaking space entity to get the space rendered.
