The text in the "info" box is not HTML despite the confusing documentation. It is text only. Any included "<", ">" or "&" characters are escaped.
Although I have not edited this page myself, I understand it so as the text has not been in HTML in any way. Plain text has been entered, but still non-ASCII characters have been double-escaped. Why they are escaped in the first place is a mystery; why they are escaped twice is incomprihensible.
You can replace the entire template as above if you wish. See http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.048.htp for info about editing other templates beyond the three that can be edited this way.
Okay, thanks. I don't understand the procedure quite well, though. If I edit <what?>, will I be able to change the outputed HTML and CSS and thus be able to change the look of (all) the Mailman pages (including the archives)?
Changes to the source will affect the entire installation, not just a particular list or virtual domain and are more difficult to maintain across updates. It's better to edit the templates.
Okay.
That said, the modules involved in presenting the listinfo page are Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py and Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py.
Nice to know. Thanks.
