I find this useful: "How to write your own DTML tag" http://www.zope.org/Members/z113/1 Cheers. -- Andy McKay. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Morten W.

Hia guys,

I was wondering if any of you could give me a couple of hints about how to make the _.{random,string,range,Datetime} thingies from a tag expression.

I.e. instead of doing this:

<dtml-widget select options="[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13]" selected="[1,3,5,7,9,11,13">

This could be done:

<dtml-widget select options="_.range(1,14,1)" selected="_.range(1,14,2)">

Like this (with the DTML var tag):

<dtml-var "[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]">

<dtml-var "_.range(1,11)">

Thanks & cheers,

Morten
