Hello-- How does one preserve an HTML entity (in this case, a numerical HTML entity such as X) that exists within a METAL macro as it is expanded? Is there a way to suppress the conversion of the ampersands to "&" in a macro when it is expanded by a call from a Zope page template? I have defined a macro that includes within it the following image tag, which itself includes HTML numerical entities I would like to preserve unaltered: <img class="middle" title="Address email to: XSCD@XSCD.COM" src="images/at-icon.jpg" width="32" height="27" alt="send email " /> When the macro is called by a page template and expanded, the entity "X" becomes "X" which of course does not function as the original HTML entity would. I'm new to Zope, and trying to learn it from the start using only strict XHTML 1.1, CSS2 and TAL, METAL with no DTML (and learning Python too as I go along). Thank you, Steve D. New Mexico US
