Might I suggest a header and footer method that's called by the
document?

I do this in my standard_html_header:

<dtml-if localheader><dtml-var localheader></dtml-if> 

The same in the footer works.  This way, whatever localheader is in the
aquisition path gets rendered.  If you can't rely on aquisition, I think
you need some namespace magic.

Try <dtml-var _[someotherpage]> in your DTMLDocument without
header/footer.  *if* this works, then it'll break if the DTML document
isn't rendered this way.
