[Typo3] dynamically replacing template tags

[Thorsten Kahler]

Hi Matthew,

I try to strip it down to the basics:

Generally in all TYPO3 DB tables there's a field "pid" which points out the
page where the respective data set is located. As every page (except the one
with uid 0) is also located at another page, the table pages also has a
field "pid", that points to a page which is often called "parent page". From
a distinct (quite commonly used ;-) ) view all pages build up a "page tree".

It depends on the table you're looking at whether you use "page id" or
"parent page id" as long term for "pid".

Regards
Thorsten
