ehtml is very very flexible and the speed-hungry expander is very very clever

but

try this...

Code:
{ehtml, {div, [], "Hello World"}}


...doesn't work... why? ...eventually I sussed that div per se is a reserved word!

Instead use:
Code:
{ehtml, {'div', [], "Hello World"}}

which makes it an atom and thus not interpreted at expansion time. DIV will not work as it thinks it is an undefined variable.

This may be obvious but not to me it wasn't! I hope that saves somebody else needless frustration and exasperation!
