That helped a lot! I yahoo'd (can't google any more since they've sold out to the interests gathering >> our personal data for Homeland Security) "put_factory" and got this code snippet:
if ext == 'dtml': from OFS.DTMLDocument import DTMLDocument
return DTMLDocument( '', __name__=name )
So...how would I rewrite that to change it into a page template? And, more importantly, where is >> the documentation to do so? Yahooing didn't help on this. I went to my Zope installation to: {INSTALLATION}/lib/python/OFS to hunt around, but no script pointing to some "PTDocument" like there is with DTML.
I think you want ZopePageTemplate from lib/python/Products/PageTemplates/
Hmm. Looking in that I find these two files that *might* be appropriate: PageTemplates.py ZopePageTemplates.py The latter is a wrapper for the former. The former defines the following class: class PageTemplate(Base): If this is the class I want to use, why only one argument? My example above cites exactly two arguments. And it is not a "base" I need to pass, is it? The latter defines the following class: class ZopePageTemplate(Script, PageTemplate, Historical, Cacheable, Traversable, PropertyManager): Why so many arguments? It doesn't look like those are any of the arguments I need to pass. None of the other files in that folder appeared to make sense, either. I confess I'm still quite green at programming, so if I'm wrong, please don't be too harsh ;) Any direction would be appreciated. TIA, Nancy
