Hi,

Just looking for a simple DTML example of how to use the string functions.

I wish to check to see if the first and last characters of a sequence-key are a pipe character or not.

I have no generic examples, but a direct solution: <!--#if "_['sequence-key'][-1:] == '|' or _['sequence-key'][:1] == '|'"--> should do it. Strings are sequences in python, so you can slice them. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | Tel: +31-35-7502100 Fax: +31-35-7502111 | mailto:mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ------------------------------------------
