[Zope] PAL versus DTML

As a newbie I am kind of confused by different techniques in zope. 

DTML I understand as a help to modularize websites by limiting a DTML
method/document to a certain task. 

But this generated code is not usuable and workable with WYSIWYG tools and
hence PAL is the method of choice since all these XML namespaces hide the
stuff to the designers with their dreamweaver. 

But how do I now modularize my site with PAL in the DTML way? From the
handbook I figured that DTML does not seem to be the method of choice since
it  is not usuable by the designer folks with their tools. So how to
accomplish modularisation with PAL and how to transfer/use my old
standard_html_header/footer?

(I posted a similar inquiry yesterday, but due to high traffic I may and my
newbie existense I kind of did not get any answer replying to that specific
quest :-)
