I have a list (I think) created this way:
(date = '31-DEC-1999')
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('MyList', _.string.split(date, '-'))">
so now REQUEST['MyList'] should contain 3 elements: 31 DEC 1999
How, in dtml, do I say "give me the value of the 1st element of MyList" or the second or third.
I've tried <dtml-var "REQUEST['MyList'][0]"> but I get this error:
Error Type: TypeError Error Value: argument 1: expected read-only character buffer, Missing found Now I don't know which part this error is refering to, but anyhow I want this functionality. I expect that your "date" looks like a string but in fact is an object. In this case, your error does not result from the "MyList[0]" but from th "_.string.split(date,'-')". Use "_.string.split(_.str(date),'-')", instead.
