problem with inner class involving template

Please check this program...When I compiles it in VC.net, it gives the
following error:
===============
Common\Lib\PList.h(115): error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from
'ListNode *' to 'List<T>::ListNode *'
with
[
T=float
]
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires
reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
project\Source\Levelmgr.cpp(19 : while compiling
class-template member function 'List<T>::Iterator::Iterator(List<T>
*)'
with
[
T=float
]
project\Source\Levelmgr.cpp(15) : see reference to class
template instantiation 'List<T>::Iterator' being compiled
with
[
T=float
]

===============
when I tried to change it to

template<typename T>
List<T>::ListNode * List<T>::Head(void)
{
return m_pstart;
}

instead of

template<typename T>
ListNode * List<T>::Head(void)
{
return m_pstart;
}, it gives the error:
======================
Common\Lib\PList.h(89): error C2065: 'T' : undeclared identifier
======================

Could anyone please explain what is wrong here?

Thanks,

Shouldn't this be

template<typename T>
typename List<T>::ListNode * List<T>::Head()

???

Anyway, see my other reply too.
