Hi Steve, thanks for the tips, I try to do it without the ZClass, according to my understanding, and Phil Eby's reply that should work too, but apparently I the first one to try it. I try it out. On Mon, 30 Oct 2000, Steve Spicklemire wrote:
Hi Joachim,
Hmm.. I would start start really simple here, and then 'work up' to the sql query.... Create a default rack with the following SkinScript.
WITH ['a','b','c'] COMPUTE movie_link=RESULT[0],movie_title=RESULT[1], zeiten=RESULT[2]
Set the storage for this rack to be a DataSkin derived ZClass loaded by accessing attribute 'movie_link'. Then try the following method in the Specialist:
<dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-let theItem="getItem('anyOldThing')"> <dtml-with theItem> <dtml-var movie_link> <dtml-var movie_title> <dtml-var zeiten>
</dtml-with> </dtml-let> <dtml-var standard_html_footer>
If this does what you expect.. then you're getting close. Now change the ['a','b','c'] to be a call to your query:
WITH yourQuery(... parameters for your query... ) COMPUTE movie_link, movie_title... etc.
If you get the same errors in the first case.. then your problem has nothing to do with SQL.
