Question : Simple conditional in Kid template used with CherryPy

I'm very new to CherryPy, but managed to get it running on FreeBSD.  Working great.  I started using the Kid template, as it is easier to implement than Cheetah, and I need only very basic functionality.  However, I've been unable to get any conditional (py:if) to work within the template.  Or more to the point, every conditional defaults to true apparently, or more likely the conditional is just not processed whatsoever.  

I've used the example from the following, but it doesn't work.....even if I may 5*6=2, it still shows the text.  http://kid-templating.org/language.html#conditionals-py-if

Any hints as to where I might be going wrong or if perhaps there is some configuration thing I need to do?

Answer : Simple conditional in Kid template used with CherryPy

The question why I am asking is:
Do you have any proof, that kid-template is really running and active?

Do you have anything working from kids template (except passing code through tpo the browser)?
