I was told that the program that uses this template uses python, but am
checking out zope nonetheless.  The reason I need to include and external
html fragment is that I want the page to have two seperate interfaces
depending on which part of the site the user is coming from.  If they are
searching CareerConnection, the mainclass variable will be Employers and the
results page needs to fit the interface of the CareerConnection site,
otherwise, they should get the old default interface.  I was using
"#include" only as a placeholder until I figured out how to do it in python.
If you know how, please let me know.
