If you're writing logic in DTML then you're programming. Limiting your programming to a language that is very poorly designed for the task (logic instead of presentation) will not help either your results or the development of your programming skills. Python is actually a very easy language to learn -- one of the best around for beginners. I strongly suggest that you start writing a few Python Scripts for logic tasks that you're now doing in DTML and calling them from DTML or ZPT. --On Thursday, May 30, 2002 08:26:22 PM +1000 Jan Smith <jan@curpheymedia.com> wrote:
I have recently been looking at Zope Page Templates with a view to switching over to them in preparation for Zope 3. However as I understand it people are encouraged to use Python rather than DTML when using TAL.
TAL is not a replacement for DTML so what is the future for people who really like Zope and have DTML experience but not Python experience?
