title: Golang new template not working
body: <p>When I run:</p>
  
  <pre><code>t, _ := template.ParseFiles("index.html")
  t.Execute(w, nil)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the page loads fine.
  But when I try and run</p>
  
  <pre><code>t := template.New("first")
  t, _ = t.ParseFiles("index.html")
  t.Execute(w, nil)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the only thing that loads is a blank page.
  I am trying to change the delimiter values in a Golang html template and would like to make the template, change the delimiter values, then parse the file.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone else have this problem?</p>
