I had tried that to. It didn't work either. Here is why... I was running the code from an DTML Document, not a DTML Method. However, once I put the code in a DTML Method, it still didn't work. I think that part of the problem is that the scope I'm working with by calling the code from a DTML document, and then look for all of the DTML documents in the folder, is misplaced. What I may need is to call the parent object (a folder) to look for that bit of code... Something like <dtml-in expr="Parent.objectValeus('DTML DOcument')" sort="decision_date" reverse> <dtml-if expr="document_type == 'case'"> Do something... </dtml-if> </dtml-in> Except that I don't have the parent parameter right. I don't remember how to call a parent object. Do you think that would solve the problem?

Okay, I moved all of this code into a DTML Method. Note, the DTML Method itself was called form a DTML Document. One of things I want to do is list other DTML documents that satsify a certain criteria in when someone wants to view the first DTML Document. Here is the code that works (in a DTML Method called from a DTML Document)... <dtml-if expr="title == 'Mental Steps Doctrine'"> Past first if <dtml-in expr="PARENTS[0].objectValeus('DTML DOcument')" sort="decision_date" reverse> Past the in <dtml-if expr="document_type == 'case'"> In the case. <a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"><dtml-var title></a> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> </dtml-if> Thanks to everyone who helped.

A boolean property either has the value '', or 'on'. <dtml-if prop_name> set <dtml-else> clear </dtml-if> This worked fine in Zope 2.3.1 -Randy > -----Original Message----- > From: marc lindahl [mailto:marc@bowery.com] > Sent: Friday, June 15, 2001 3:51 PM > To: complaw(a)hal-pc.org; zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] Checking for a boolean property value in DTML > > > > > > From: complaw(a)hal-pc.org > > Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2001 22:32:18 GMT > > To: Dieter Maurer <dieter(a)handshake.de>, > complaw(a)hal-pc.org, zope(a)zope.org > > Subject: Re: [Zope] Checking for a boolean property value in DTML > > > >> complaw(a)hal-pc.org writes: > >>> I have a boolean property in a DTML Document.

Simple observer
by Peter Bengtsson 15 Jun '01

15 Jun '01

I'd like to add God to a folder. What I want is that for some reason (pseudo reason) that you shouldn't be allowed to create objects with certain ids in a specific folder. Perhaps a little product or something that just sits there and sniffs for manage_add* requests or something. One basic solution would be to create my own copies or addFolder, addImage, addSquishdot form and methods in which I have something like this: if REQUEST['id'] =='protectedid': print "not that id, it's not meant to be used" else: self.manage_addFolder(REQUEST['id'],REQUEST) But to handcode a solution I have to create my own version of all meta types, and I don't want that. I just want to put up an extra guard in front of the setObject() doings. What simple options are available for this? Peter

Checking for a boolean property value in DTML
by complaw＠hal-pc.org 15 Jun '01

15 Jun '01

I have a boolean property in a DTML Document. The boolean property is called "mental_steps_doctrine". I want to list those documents that have mental_steps_doctrine set to "TRUE". I know for a fact that one of the DTML Documents in question has mental_steps_doctrine set to TRUE (i.e., checked). However, the following code fails to list that case: <dtml-in expr="objectValues('DTML Document')" sort="decision_date" reverse> <dtml-if expr="document_type == 'case'"> <dtml-if expr="mental_steps_doctrine == 1"> <a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"><dtml-var title></a> </dtml-if> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> Instead, it doesn't list any case at all. Incidentally, <dtml-if mental_steps_doctrine> or <dtml-if expr="mental_steps_doctrine"> didn't work. Can someone give me a wee bit of help on syntax here? Thanks to all, Ron

Using Java libraries on Zope (XML) content
by Jeff Kowalczyk 15 Jun '01

15 Jun '01

If you had a Zope application that needed some library fuctionality that is only available with Java at present, what would be the best way to integrate? For simplicity let's limit the scope of the question to using Batik (SVG->PNG/JPG) and/or FOP (XML->PDF) on some dynamic XML that came out of a Zope method instead of HTML, and as destined to be transformed before its seen by the user. There's always java HTTP servlets, but would there be a way to eliminate the latency and overhead? I.e. Is there something in Python that would wrap Java API's so they executed more or less in-process with the Zope XML generating code? (I suppose running a whole Zope on Jython is out of the question :) )
