[Zope] Quick question about <dtml-if ...>

Thanks to everyone for pointing me in the right direction the other day.

I have a quick question regarding <dtml-if ...>  (I'm up to Chapter 4 in the 
Zope Book right now.)

If I have a URI like this:
   GET /foo?a=3

And the corresponding DTML contains:

<dtml-if expr="a=3">
  <!-- Some Junk -->
</dtml-if>

....Wouldn't this evaluate the Python expression?

I've tried doing:
<dtml-if a=3>
  <!-- -->
</dtml-if>

But received a syntax error.

So I guess my question is, I thought the expr argument brought the DTML script 
outside the scope of the website.  I'm not trying to call any external 
methods.

Have I completely lost it now? ;-)  (Don't answer that, please.)
