Are any instructions available for building a template for a site?
You have read the ZPT chapters in the Zope Book?
No, I haven't looked at ZPT. I thought I would try to get the hang of DTML first, just so that I can make some progress with ZOPE. I'm finding it a steep learning curve.
Then you know about "metal:define-macro", "metal:use-macro", "metal:define-slot" and "metal:fill-slot".
With this knowledge, you may have a look at Plone, especially its "main_template.pt".
Maybe, you want to use Plone as your starting point altogether?
I have not installed Plone yet, and don't know much about it or CMF. Do they both need to installed or can I install them independently? I'm getting a little bit saturated with all these new gadgets and find myself being unable to see how everything fits together.
