Well, it ain't broke and it works very well most of the time.
And I like DTML. It just makes sense to me. Guess that makes me weird 
these days... And I have broken all the rules...mixing logic and 
presentation. But I do it that way because it works and gives me the 
results I need. I have been "programming" HTML since late '92 and the 
tag-based syntax works well for me. Doing a LOT more in Python scripts 
and External methods and slowly converting some things so I am not 
STAYING in the dark ages. I use HomeSite5 for editing so coding in DTML 
works great.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Stop by and see what I mean... www.fredericksburg.com ...mostly all DTML 
and ZCLASSes. Scares me to think about converting the whole thing over.
