 True, but this is just starting off, to make sure it works.

 "date" was just a DHTML page that had a static string saying 'this would be
a date'.

Have you defined it anywhere?

 Yep, even that doesn't work (see below). Oddly, when I created a page with
pure HTML as index_html at the very top level, it didn't get seen as an
index page. I just get a management view when I go to the top level port.
