Hello Andy
Must admit I cant be bothered to read all this but some notes:
<input type="hidden" name="" value="<dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('toondecr2?datum=%s&teller=%s' % (datum,teller))">>">
This is pointless, the page will never be rendered because it will instantly do the redirect. If you could refactor this a bit to more concise question...
Gosh, you're harsh. I'll try.
Why the instant redirection?
I want to make the redirection conditional on clicking the submit button.
Why _does_ it work as I'd like it to when in a separate form (you don't have to read this;)? The following produces an almost empty webpage with just a submit button. The required action is only undertaken when the submit button is pressed:
<form method="post" action=""> <input type="submit" name="x" value="> "> <dtml-if x> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('datum', _.str('1796/03/11'))"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('teller', 5)"> <input type="hidden" name="" value="<dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('toondecr2?datum=%s&teller=%s' % (datum,teller))">"> </dtml-if> </form>
Cheers, Dirk
Dirk, what you wrote is right, albeit a quite convoluted way to do this. Let me rewrite this (ignore the wrapping): <dtml-if x> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('datum', _.str('1796/03/11'))"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('teller', 5)"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('toondecr2?datum=%s&teller=%s' % (datum,teller))"> </dtml-if> <form method="post" action=""> <input type="submit" name="x" value="> "> </form> You see, writing the dtml-call in the hidden action has no effect, it seems like you got irritated there. Could you perhaps reformulate what you want to do exactly? Why do you want a submit button (since you can, as you did, also use normal a hrefs to pass parameters with a GET request)? cheers, oliver
