Michael's advice -- to go through the MTB tutorial -- is good, but you
should remember that, since Typo3's html templates contain no logic
(if - then - else and such), you are always going to have some markup
embedded in Typoscript.

This applies, for example, to menus and any item whose display is
conditional (e.g. "imageWrapIfAny" in tt_news), but most anything else
you should be able to retain within the template.
