Hi Richard,

Thanks. I've been trained on creating templates (Jian). But I'm lost in
terms of different options for maintaining HTML structure files outside the
code templates. Our first integrator linked XSLT with different XML search
results to generate the HTML that appears on the page. I want to do
something similar, but not XML.

I was just wondering what other options exist for this type of file-based
templating.
