you should be able to add <dtml-var standard_html_header> at the top and
<dtml-var standard_html_footer> at the bottom of any given DTML Document and
this will give you what you want.

But this is not an effective way to use zope, cmf or plone.

Frankly I haven't used Plone much, but with CMF you go to the link to "My
Stuff" which should be near where your username appears on the page
indicating that you are logged in. This takes you to a listing of the
objects in your Members folder. click on the "New ..." button and you will
get a menu of objects to add.

You might want to join the cmf.zope.org site and play around with it, then
try CMF, and then finally try Plone.

Feel free to email me any more questions.
