But that string is buried in the middle of many lines of HTML/DTML.  As near as
I know DTML does not support string replacement directly.

I had thought of building the contents as a "sandwich", pulling everything
before the 'M23' from one method, then the string 'M23', then the remainder from
another method.  But I can't save a method that looks like broken DTML, i.e.
that ends with '<!--#var '.
