Hey everyone, Now that I'm not trying to use string methods on a date instance anymore, I think I'm close to a solution. I'm trying to add a Photo instance to a folder with an HTML form and a PythonScript. Here's the script: """ Create a "Picture of the Day" image. """ import string # create a unique object id based on the display date dateString = str(display_date) # convert date to string newID = string.split(dateString, '/') id = '' for i in newID: id = id + str(i) # create the image context.manage_addProduct['OFSP'].manage_addPhoto(id, title=title, file=file) # add a display date property #doc = getattr(context, id) #doc.manage_addProperty('display_date', display_date, 'date') Notice I've commented out the part that adds the display_date property. Now the executing this script produces the following error and traceback: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: manage_addPhoto Traceback (innermost last): File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: POTD_add) File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: POTD_add) File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 324, in __call__ (Object: POTD_add) File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 353, in _bindAndExec (Object: POTD_add) File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Products/PythonScripts/PythonScript.py, line 330, in _exec (Object: POTD_add) (Info: ({'script': <PythonScript instance at 87874d0>, 'context': <Folder instance at 89506c0>, 'container': <Folder instance at 89506c0>, 'traverse_subpath': []}, ('Test image', DateTime('2001/01/31'), <ZPublisher.HTTPRequest.FileUpload instance at 874a470>), {}, None)) File Script (Python), line 15, in POTD_add File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Products/PythonScripts/Guarded.py, line 273, in __getattr__ File /var/lib/zope/2.3.0/lib/python/Products/PythonScripts/Guarded.py, line 143, in __careful_getattr__ AttributeError: (see above) I've looked at the Photo product source and noted that the parameters it expects are listed as self, id, file, title='', displays=None, precondition='', content_type='', REQUEST=None. That looks OK. What about the line: context.manage_addProduct['OFSP'].manage_addPhoto(id, title=title, file=file) What's the purpose of manage_addProduct['OFSP']? Is my error a result of not calling the manage_addPhoto method properly? Any more ideas? -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.k12.mn.us/ | http://www.zope.org/ W.
