[Zope] Cleaning HTML for use as ZPT

[Robert Jean]

Dennis,

Thanks for your response.

I don't understand what you mean by "use TAL and/or
DTML to invoke it". Invoke what?

The old malformed HTML has to be rendered by TAL,
because after being imported, it is modified and
contains a few TAL macros.
