I have several DTML-Methods that simply hold page Fragments. In my main DTML Document I want to include one of these Methods via the <dtml-var> tag. If I use the method's name it works, the HTML source is included in the document and displayed correctly. But unfortunately, the method's id is stored in a variable (pagename). if I put <dtml-var pagename> or <dtml-var "pagename"> only the the method's id is displayed, not the contents/results of the method call. I've tried all combinations that came to my mind, but none worked.
How can I solve this?
You should use inderection: <dtml-var "_[pagename"]> will include the literal content of the object named by the pagename variable, and quote any HTML in it. If yo uwant it to be called, (like the <DTML-var objectname> or <dtml-var name=objectname> syntax does), use this: <dtml-var "_.getitem(pagename, 1)"> See the DTML Users Guide, and look at the 'name' and 'expr' attributes, and the _ object. -- 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 ------------------------------------------
