I'm not shure if I understand you correctly, but this might do what you're looking for: <dtml-call REQUEST.set('folderExists', 0) <dtml-in expr="objectValues('Folder')"> <dtml-if "id=='2001'"> <dtml-call REQUEST.set('folderExists', 1) </dtml-if> </dtml-in> <dtml-if folderExists> <dtml-else> <dtml-call manage_addFolder....> </dtml-if> ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Muldrow <muldrow@mac.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2001 5:40 PM Subject: [Zope] How to check for a folder's existence and create it if itdoesn't exist?
I'm trying create a method to go through a site and create certain folders if they don't already exist. I can check for the existence of the folders with this:
<dtml-in expr="objectValues('Folder')"> <dtml-if "id=='2001'"> It matches<p> </dtml-if>
</dtml-in>
But how do I craft the "else" to create the folder? Obviously, if I throw the <dtml-else> inside the "in" loop, it'll throw itself into the "else" action for every iteration where it doesn't find the named folder.
