thanks for that - I'm a bit of a novice on all this ....
so I've figured out that the function needs to be declared in the php controller
- but I'm a but confused about how to 'call' this function inside (?) the .ss <% control Children %> loop -

You're doing well by asking questions.
So you have a function in your controller something like this:
public function GetChildren($Limit = 5){
return DataObject::get("PageType", "ParentID = $this->ID", Null, Null, $Limit);
}In your template you would have:
<% control GetChildren(3) %>
<h2>$Title</h2>
$Content.LimitWordCount
<% end_control %>You call the control on GetChildren instead of Children.
Make sense?
