No, no, no! :)
You misunderstand how the Zope works. You think that basic building
block is a piece of HTML (probably you think to put it into DTML
Documents). No. In Zope basic building block is "instance of some python
class". A DTML Document is an instance of DTMLDocument class, e.g.
If you develop your own set of classes, you'll just build Zope sites
creating instances of these classes - you put HTML fragmenst just into
these instances. Zope will call your objects, you don't need to use DTML to
call them.
