    XXXAmos:Is it possible to save a Page Template to Zope without first 
    creating a page template object? -TD

       I've just created a program template in FileLib, called index.html
       and filled it with the source above using the MI.
       No messing about with a FTP tool I have not, not trying to put a file
       into a file (which does not work) nor trying to create a directory 
       with the same name oas a file (not permitted). 
       It isn't a file type (so long as I don't up-load it with FTP), so it won't
       appear in the listing when I get that far. 
       It appears to be working (so far). 

       Seldom have so many owed so much confusion to so few!

       Having renamed it index_html it now  displays the completed table, 
       from the url ..../FileLib    !

       I don't quite understand the actual problem being described but I *had* to add the "seldom have so many owed
       so much confusion to so few!" quote to ZopeZen. This is classic, it made me laugh out loud. ;-) -chrism
