---------------

        Normally, the 'tal:replace' and 'tal:content' statements
        escape HTML tags and entities in the text that they insert,
        converting '<' to '&lt;', for instance.  If you actually want
        to insert the unquoted text, you need to precede the
        expression with the 'structure' keyword.  For example::

          <p replace="structure here/story">
            the <b>story</b>
          </p>

           Shouldn't it be tal:replace in the example above? I'm new to Page Templates, so I might be missing something.

           I absolutely agree. I found "container" and "here" (and the other like words) very obscure. I was amazed when
           finally way down in this chapter found an explantion. What a relief! Much brain hurting would be fixed by
           explaining these basic elements of the examples sooner.

           Not so intimate w html, so: Whats the diff between "HTML tag" and "HTML entity"?

           it is ironic but one should read Appendix D "Zope Page Template Reference" before reading both chapters on
           Page Templates.
