[Zope] Re: formatting tuple to feed to mysql

I'm have a tuple that I want to pass to a zSQL query to so I can based on items in the tuple. I get the sequence from a zSQL query that selects a single field, and I'm postprocessing it with the following:

<dtml-let SelectedIDs="[ai[0] for ai in queries.selectDOdocIDs().tuples()]">

Which puts the sequence in brackets like this:

[211, 873, 515, 516, 589]

but mysql seems to want them in parenthesis... because when I try this

select ThemeWords.* from DocThemes, ThemeWords where DocThemes.DocID in <dtml-var SelectedIDs> and DocThemes.ThemeID = ThemeWords.ID

I get a KeyError.

Also, is it possible to pass a list using dtml-sqlvar?

thanks -- David

Use "dtml-sqltest" with the attribute "multiple": http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/RelationalDatabases.stx#2-67 HTH, Wolfram
