The operator used was "=" which was inconsistent in light of
previous uses of the variable in the ptest section. I changed the

The formatting for the "Caution" boxes was poor. There was no
apparent reason in the style guide why these types of admonitions
should appear any different than "Notes" or "Tips", which look
fine. I could not devise a .css solution so I tricked the
formatting by using the <title></title> tags in combination with
a <note></note> pair. Basically dumped the <caution></caution>
tag pair. It looks okay now.
