Hallo, I have just upgraded to release_8.0-pre-193-gaa7b1 and found that I needed to change a few things to get the desired results when exporting some of our org files to HTML. Our last changes were also targeted at the new exporter and everything worked fine about a month ago. I found that I had to change HTML_STYLE to HTML_HEAD - not a problem. However, the second change is caused by our use of MACROs: we find them very helpful for generating HTML content using raw HTML templates with placeholders. This used to work (for generating http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard information) a month ago: {{{mhead-hcard( Dr. Stefan Vollmar, Stefan, , Vollmar, Dr., stefan-vollmar.jpg, stefan-vollmar.html, ...)}}} with this type of macro definition: #+macro: mhead-hcard #+html:

$1
$5 $2[...] but now the white space around the arguments is no longer stripped and/or other effects cause "<" and ">" in the macro to be exported as "<" etc. This version seems to work fine: {{{mhead-hcard(Dr. Stefan Vollmar,Stefan,,Vollmar,Dr.,stefan-vollmar.jpg,stefan-vollmar.html,Head of IT Group\,
Physicist\, Software Developer,vollmar@nf.mpg.de,it,+49 221 4726-213,+49 221 4726-298)}}} Yes, I could use it as a workaround, but I would prefer something similar to the above version for improved readability - maybe by adding "line continuation markers" like "\"? Obviously, more complex macros (the one above has 12 individual arguments) are less than ideal anyway and the best solution (by far) would be "named arguments". Maybe there already is a better way of using (HTML) templates? Many thanks in advance. Warm regards, Stefan -- Dr. Stefan Vollmar, Dipl.-Phys.
