The date is a complex object not a string. Zope provides many ways to format it. Here is one: <dtml-var "ZopeTime()" fmt=%Y/%m/%d> -- Loren

cheers,

I tested it out - didn't work.
I wanted to do that with a date:
<dtml-let datum="ZopeTime()+7"> <dtml-var "datum[:10]"> </dtml-let>
"Date is unsliceable"... ??? What I want to get is just the date without the time!
Any ideas?
Some more questions:
- I'd like to give my each instance of my ZClass a title, which is then shown in the folder window, just like documents for example. I tried to simply create a property "title" in my property sheet, but as
expected, it of course didn't refer to that property to show it in the overview.
- How can I get the source code of manage_main? I'd like to modify it a little within my ZClass.
Thanks to you all!!!
Lars
