Thanks.

Yes, I know I could use 'py:content', and this works in each case as far as I can tell. I'm not even sure I would ever need to use 'py:replace', I was just testing possibilities. And you're right - after wrapping the content passed from the controller in the XML() function it works every time. Thanks. Still, I think Kid's behaviour is inconsistent - replacing <h1> with an escaped string yields an HTML document that sems to me no more invalid than in the case of replacing <span>. Perhaps I'm missing something with respect to the structure generated in each case, but I can't see what it could be. Anyway, thanks a lot. > Kevin -- Grzegorz Staniak
