[ZPT] The Zope Book define macro example

[Michael Fair]

To respnd to my own post, the reason for the failure
is that the <ul> tag implicitly closes the <p> tag.

Trying to use tables instead of <ul> does the same thing.

So I redid it enclosing the whole thing in a <span> tag
and it worked just fine.  I've submitted comments on 
"The Zope Book" via the comments link but I'm not sure
if they went anywhere useful since I was just taken to
the bug page where my comments weren't listed.
