Hello all,

This is my first post.  I've noticed a couple of weird things in 2.5.0.
First off, the management editor keeps insisting on putting closing tags in
for <dtml-var> (like </dtml-var>) after I click "Save Changes" on a DTML
doc.  

Also, for some reason, the <dtml-var someDTMLMethod> doesn't work.  Here's
an example:

index_html is a dtml document that contains the following (note the dotted
lines are  not part of the code, they just delimit it for the purposes of
this email):
------------------------------------
<dtml-var standard_html_header>
Testing...<br>
<dtml-var testDtmlMethod><br>
Done test!<br>
<dtml-var standard_html_footer>
------------------------------------

and testDtmlMethod is a DTML Method that contains:
-----------------------
IF THE TEST WORKS THIS SHOULD PRINT!!!
-----------------------

When you view index_html in the browser, it looks like this:
-----------------------
Testing...

Done test!
-----------------------

But it should print this:

-----------------------
Testing...
IF THE TEST WORKS THIS SHOULD PRINT!!!
Done test!
-----------------------

Am I missing some new "Feature" in 2.5.0?

Help!
Thanks in advance,
Dave Thibault
