It should work.
It will reneder the controls in the following sequence:
1. header.
2. your page content (that inherits from PageTemplate)
3. footer
All the tags should be placed in such a way that when the page is
rendered it will generate valid HTML code. For example:
<html> <head></head> and opening <body> tag could go to the header
control.
</body> and </html> could go to your footer. Your page content should
define only the "inner part" of the page (no <body>,<head> tags
etc..).
Good luck.
