Content is generally static, as part of the whole 
content/logic/presentation concept. I don't know about PloneArticle, but 
I doubt it's any different: the contents are not parsed by anything but 
delivered exactly as is.

If you want behavior, you need a page template. Though there is at least 
one product that provides a type that breaks the rules. DynamicContent 
or something like that.
