Hi all. I need to generate a large XML file inside a Zope application; the file is for backup purposes, so it is stored on the server and can be downloaded later with whatever suitable tool. The data are taken from a database, and then they are used to create the XML. I assume there will be between 40.000 and 100.000 rows to be dumped. I thought i could use page template for this purpose, but I'm not sure if it is possible to send the output from a pt to a file, directly. Of course, this is a problem which can be easily solved. I wonder however if the PT has to generate the whole XML in just one step; in that case, maybe I should resort to use PT on one row at time, and write the data to different files. Thanks for your time. Regards Marco -- Marco Bizzarri http://notenotturne.blogspot.com/ http://iliveinpisa.blogspot.com/
