Hmm. It seems to me that he wants to do two things: check $report_type
against a range and if it is valid, then include a report. I would
might do something like:

> {if strpos("general||ppm||finance||testing||", "`$report_type`||")}
>    {include file="reports.$report_type.inc.html"}

Still, it seems more reasonable that this can be handled in the PHP
controller.

i'd really do that in the php controller.

either sign a contract that you will always and ever have a resonable
value assinged to $report_type, or usr a default_template_handler_func
to provide a reasonable fallback if "reports.$report_type.inc.html"
doesn't exists.
