---------------

    If you set the content-type to 'text/html' then Zope parses your
    template using HTML compatiblity mode which allows HTML's loose
    markup. If you set your content-type to something other than
    'text/html' then Zope assumes that your template is well formed
    XML. Zope also requires an explicit TAL and METAL XML namespace
    declarations for well formed XML.

       Maybe new users want to start out properly right away. I'd really like to see a well formed XML example
       either here or even have the above example in well formed XML.

       Please, just give the declarations! ( &&*$%#$$-ing namespaces... All they do is cause trouble. TAL works
       because it is like architectural forms!)

       It is really funny. Before reading this chapter, one has to read the Appendix D first. I thought Appendix
       chapters are more like reference chapters.
