Im finally starting to build some DTML objects for Dreamweaver, and I wondered if folks could tell me what their "wish - list" might be for this.
This is fantastic news! Unfortunately I don't know too much about Dreamweaver so I'll have to go over and talk to Jeffrey.
For example for the VAR tag, do you really want to have to specify all those attributes or should there be a secondary simpler object that just inserts a <!--#var something -->
I've been told this is a classic question in the SGML world -- should a tag have a bunch of attributes or should the attributes be nested tags?
Someday when/if dreamweaver get's webdav savvy Ill have the var object obtain a list of all available variables at that level and allow you to just "choose" one.
This brings up a bit of a problem that I wonder how Dreamweaver can address it. If I go to zope.foo/Me/MyDocument, I get the _rendered_ version of MyDocument. If I want to edit MyDocument, I want to edit the _unrendered_ version. Brian has been talking about this in WebDAV. But I don't know enough about how Dreamweaver interacts with the things it is editing...
The possibilites are there.
Hmm, if you could just embed Python in Dreamweaver, then use our Python webdav client code, ... :^) --Paul
