meant to cc the list. To: Tim Fraser Subject: RE: [Zope] - dtml syntax query
I wondered what the id[0:5] means?
I can answer that.. :) This is python notation for "the first 5 characters of the id string". You can find more details on this notation in the python tutorial at www.python.org.
I want to insert a tag in a new page which will iterate through a number of created "polls"(id's are p1,p2,p3...), all of which exist in one folder and which will dynamically create a list of links.
After reading the DTML User Guide I'm still unclear. The "in" tag seems the correct choice. However I can't seem to arrive at the correct syntax.
I'll take a stab at this too.. there's more info on #in syntax in .../lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py. Maybe these snippets will be of some help: A very simple list of hyperlinks to subobjects: <!--#in objectItems --> <A HREF="<!--#var sequence-key -->"><!--#var sequence-key --></A><br> <!--#else--> No items <!--#/in--> A tree, sorted by object id, listing only objects for which you have access rights. I use an #if statement to hide User Folders. You might need to adjust the HREF and TARGET: <!--#tree sort=id nowrap=1 skip_unauthorized=1--> <!--#if expr="_vars['tree-item-url'][-9:]=='acl_users'"--> <!--#else--> <A HREF="<!--#var tree-item-url-->/main" TARGET="main"><!--#var id--></A> <!--#/if--> <!--#/tree--> -Simon
