I'm trying to add a statement to my page that greets each user with a different statement, but i can't seem to work out how to do it.
Just from reading some of the zope documentation i've tried:
<dtml-if expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER = bob"> bob likes to eat fish </dtml-if>
and
<dtml-if expr="str(GetUser()) = bob"> bob likes to eat fish </dtml-if>
Both of these are obviously very wrong, in the first case i thought it might have something to do with calling an object and trying to compare it to a string so in the second one i tried rendering it into a string, but evedently this isn't the correct way to do that. I'm new to both zope and python and I have a feeling I have the whole thing totally wrong.
Would it be better to do this in python some how and store each users greeting in a dtml document?
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hi, Myles Equality-testing in python uses "==", not " =". Easy mistake. -- Jim Washington
