It might make your life easier if you used a
dtml-let (WARNING: untested):
<dtml-in
dictList="ScriptThatReturnsAListofDicts()">
<dtml-let
aDict="_['sequence-item']">
<dtml-if
"aDict.has_key('titled')">
do
something here
But this is still pretty ugly. Another
approach would be to clean up the data in your list/dicts within the python
script, before you get to the dtml method.

Subject: [Zope] dictionary from
sequence-item
Hello,
I am looping through a list of dictionary objects
using <dtml-in...
and within the dtml-in body I have:
<dtml-var
"_.getitem('sequence-item')['titled']" missing="none">
Some of the
dictionaries in the list don't have 'titled' key so it should replace it with
the word "none", but it gives me an error
Error Type:
KeyError
Error Value: 'titled'
I don't
understand. Another option is that I can use <dtml-if
"_.getitem('sequence-item').has_key('titled')"> but it doesn't work, says
has_key is an unknown attribute. This is the stupidest thing ever! it's
a dictionary object!
I try to typecast it using the
dict(_.getitem('sequence-item')).has_key('titled') it gives me an error saying
it can't typecast, but I am 100% sure it's a dictionary object because I can
access it easily _.getitem('sequence-item')['titled'] for those that have that
key.
Any idea how I can check if the titled key is in the dictionary
for the current list item?
Thanks in advance guys!
