Hi!
So as the item is an instance of my ZClass containing also an company_name attribute it will always return the item and because of that the Rack thinks it's already there. So why is this happening? What do I need to change?
You need to use an attribute which the object has *if and only if* it exists in the database. If the class has the attribute defined, all instances exist, and you can't even load it with SkinScript because ZPatterns uses __getattr__ to redefine attributes, and that doesn't work if the attribute already exists in the class.
So I shouldn't define it inside the ZClass propertysheet? Do I understand this right? (I remember having problems when using properties not defined in a sheet somewhere.. or am I mistaken completely somehow? ;-)
When changing the loadAttrib to something else (non existing), the newItem is working but instead getItem is not working anymore as it returns None only.. (somehow the zsql method is not even called thus the skinscript seems not to work in that case (I guess because the loadAttrib is not defined in it somewhere)).
Right. The load attribute has to be one defined in a provider, and which will end up being "NOT_FOUND" if the object doesn't exist in the table you're querying.
I will experiment a little with this information. Hope it helps :) Thanks! -- christian -- COM.lounge http://comlounge.net/ communication & design info@comlounge.net
