Here is a progression of macros and supporting functions for  
generating HTML such that the run-time never has to handle a static  
string when invoking FORMAT.  Instead, those get resolved at compile- 
time, of course.

Further explanations and context are in comments within the source:

This was written as a tutorial, illustrating the progression from a  
crude first draft to a more mature version at the end.  I'm sure that  
if I look too closely at this code today, I'll likely be  
embarrassed... Critiques welcome.

Hopefully, it's sufficient to serve your purposes here.
