Hi, Brian,

Mind you I don't know ANYTHING about ZAP writing with templates.  But  
I wrote up a rather extensive analysis of a working Business  
Directory on PmWiki.org.

See if it is any help to you, because ZAP is pretty confusing, and I  
went over what I did line-by-line and explained them, then pointed to  
relevant ZAP documentation.  Right now is NOT a good time to be  
looking at ZAP snippets on the site, however -- Dan/Caveman is in the  
middle of revamping the recipe and changed most of the snippets for  
the *new* ZAP version before leaving for the weekend -- so the  
documentation on the ZAP site may be off right now :/

So the version of zap.php you're using is in alignment with the page  
I put on pmwiki.org -- hopefully it helps:
