Hello Mike, Alan and all I understand the logic of Alan's reply, but I use a slightly indirect approach.
I 'design'(*) templates and then write text marked up in either 'markdown' or 'textile' markup formats. A couple of bash scripts convert my markdown/textile to html and add the resulting marked up snippet to a page template. I also use a simple script to generate a page index. The result will always be valid html, and I don't have to type the blasted < and >. There are a number of 'static Web page generators' around now that allow much more sophisticated templating and layout. (*) 'design' used loosely.
