Also notice that any WebDNA [xxx] tags inside the context are substituted for their real values before being written to the file. You may specify a full or partial URL to the file, as in "/Some Folder/file.txt" or "LocalFolder/file.txt."
You can also generate static ordinary webpages or even dynamic ones if you add <!--HAS_WEBDNA_TAGS--> at the begining of your file. WebDNA can literally autogenerate new programs. See [raw] context.
