#
# Formatting a relation in html. 
# 
# The script maps a given relation into one html file. It requires three pieces
# of html code called prefix.html, row.html and postfix.html. Within the row 
# file, attribute names of the relation may occur, enclosed in double angular 
# brackets (called attribute marker). For example, for the plz relation of the 
# opt database, <<PLZ>> and <<Ort>> may appear.
#
# The script will create for each tuple html code where the attribute marker 
# is replaced by the respective attribute value. It will then concatenate all 
# pieces in the order 
#
#	prefix
#	code for tuple 1
#	...	
#	code for tuple n
#	postfix
#
# The result is written to an output html file.
#
# The name of the relation is Table by default and the three html files are 
# located in # directory ../secondo/bin/examplehtml. All the defaults can be 
# changed in the first section below.
#
# Note that objects named PATH, PREFIX, ROW, POSTFIX, RESULT, TABLE or HTML_* 
# should not be in the database before using the script; such objects will be 
# overwritten.
