File as EMail List
by David Kyte 12 Mar '01

12 Mar '01

Hi, Anyone used a file as an email list? I would like to create a folder with lists in. I have got the <dtml-sendmail ...> bit working but would now like to place this in a <dtml-in> block. I therefore need to convert a file into a list of recipients? Any ideas? Thanks David Kyte

Newbie: dtml-unless
by Stephan Goeldi 12 Mar '01

12 Mar '01

I'd like to list the content of a folder, except if it is the standard_html_header or footer. I use this code: <dtml-unless "'id' == 'standard_html_header'"> <dtml-unless "'id' == 'standard_html_footer'"> <dtml-in expr="foldername.objectValues()"> <a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var id></a><br> </dtml-in> </dtml-unless> </dtml-unless> It works except of the fact, that standard_html_header and footer are listed anyway. Can anybody point me into the right direction please?

I haven't tested this, but it looks like you are performing your if tests outside the loop. Try this: <dtml-in expr="foldername.objectValues()"> <dtml-unless "'id' == 'standard_html_header'"> <dtml-unless "'id' == 'standard_html_footer'"> <a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var id></a><br> </dtml-unless> </dtml-unless> </dtml-in> Troy -----Original Message----- From: Stephan Goeldi [mailto:stephan_goeldi@hotmail.com] Sent: Monday, March 12, 2001 10:06 AM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Newbie: dtml-unless I'd like to list the content of a folder, except if it is the standard_html_header or footer.

Hope, that your colleagues (looking at the commercial solutions) are a bit more cautious before they spend big money.... I think, you can go for Zope (at least, if you have some programming skills and have a bit of time). I have just read the announcement of "Amphora Light". Seems that it gives you most of what you want. http://www.amphora.ee/freeware/ You, probably, will need to do the "booking" stuff yourself, but I saw recently some posts in this respect. You can share forces with other persons on the list to get it implemented. Dieter
