Again, thanks for pointing this out earlier. I hadn't changed it for the example, because the error was not associated with whether or not the actual =emacs-lisp= code returned anything meaningful. > That said I was able to export your example file (without the change > above) to html.

Sorry for the trouble for something that seems so minor! Thanks again. Chris
