most likely you're missing something. (o8
Create a default document called 'index_html', with these contents:
<dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-if "id == 'index_html'"> index_html == <dtml-var id> <dtml-else> index_html != <dtml-var id> </dtml-if> <dtml-var standard_html_footer>
Basically, we're comparing the document id -- "index_html" to the string "index_html".
yep.. well... this is quite a common question, all up. It comes from people using shorthand, but not relaising it. sometimes i wonder if this feature should be removed. the line: <dtml-if "id == 'index_html'"> is actually shorthand for: <dtml-if expr="id == 'index_html'" > which means your expression is handled as a python expression, not a DTML one. In which case, you are comparing a function object (id) with a string object ('index_html'). the simple fix is, of course, to 'call' the function.... <dtml-if "id() == 'index_html'"> should do what you're expecting.
Thanks PK
