Tim, take a look at the python/OFS/dtml/properties.dtml code.
Sorted! Had a look at properties.dtml and what you suggested. Here's what I got to work. <dtml-in "propertysheets.details.propertyMap()" mapping> <dtml-let prop=sequence-item> <tr> <td valign="top"><dtml-var "prop.get('id')"></td> <td><dtml-if "prop.get('type')=='text'"><textarea cols="60" rows="10" name="<dtml-var "prop.get('id')">:text"><dtml-var "propertysheets.details.getProperty(prop.get('id'))"></textarea><dtml-else>< input type="text" name="<dtml-var "prop.get('id')">:<dtml-var "prop.get('type')">" value="<dtml-var "propertysheets.details.getProperty(prop.get('id'))">"></dtml-if></td> </tr> </dtml-let> </dtml-in> Thanks for your help. tim
Something more like:
<dtml-in details.propertyMap mapping> -- not sure about that part, since properties.dtml is not for a subsheet.
but anyway, use the mapping
then you'd have:
<tr> <th align="left"><dtml-var propertyLabel(id)></th> <td><dtml-if "type =='text'"> <textarea name="<dtml-var id>:text" rows="6" cols="35"><dtml-var "getProperty(id)" html_quote></textarea> <dtml-else> <input type="text" name="<dtml-var id>:<dtml-var type>" size="35" value="<dtml-if "hasProperty(id)"><dtml-var "'%s' % getProperty(id)" html_quote></dtml-if>"> </dtml-if></td> </tr>
...but I'd suggest studying properties.dtml the code there is much more complete.

I have a zclass that has a property sheet called 'details' and I am trying to create a form for editing this that goes through the property sheet (using dtml-in) and creates the correct input box. Everything works, except the getPropertyType part, which always returns 'None'. The ZQR says that it will do this when the property doesn't exist, but the property clearly does exist as propertyIds() finds it, a getProperty() does actually return the value of the property. I just want to see what sort of property it is so that I can present the correct type of input box.
Here's the code snippet.
<dtml-in "propertysheets.details.propertyIds()"> <dtml-let pid="_['sequence-item']"> <tr> <th align="left"><dtml-var pid></th> <td><dtml-if "propertysheets.details.getPropertyType(pid) == 'text'"><textarea name="<dtml-var pid>"><dtml-var "propertysheets.details.getProperty(pid)"></textarea><dtml-else><input type=text name="<dtml-var pid>" value="<dtml-var "propertysheets.details.getProperty(pid)">"></dtml-if></td> <td><dtml-var "propertysheets.details.getPropertyType(pid)"></td> </tr> </dtml-let> </dtml-in>
And here is a sample of what it generates.
<tr> <th align="left">name</th> <td><input type=text name="name" value="Tim Hicks"></td> <td>None</td> </tr> <tr> <th align="left">email</th> <td><input type=text name="email" value="tim@sitefusion.co.uk"></td> <td>None</td> </tr>
Any ideas?
