I want to create a standard index page that can be easily overridden. I've set up index_html to point to standard_index, which looks like this: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-with portal_properties> <dtml-if front_page> <dtml-var front_page> <dtml-else> <font size="+1">Click on the item you wish to view:</font> <dtml-var liststuff> </dtml-if> </dtml-with> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This works fine except for an obvious problem. Let's say I'm in the healthcare/nurses folder. If the healthcare folder contains the front_page Method, then healthcare/nurses will end up using it too. I don't want that to happen; I only want to show front_page in a folder that contains it. How do I do that? I could use REQUEST only, but so far I haven't figured out how. Is there a way to put it into the dtml-if statement? The only examples I could find on the Zope site used <dtml-with REQUEST only>, but that will cause the call to <dtml-var liststuff> to blow up because it's only looking in the requesting folder. What's the best way around this? And if it's too much of a pain to do in a DTML Method, how about in Python? Thanks, Anders Schneiderman Information Manager SEIU International P.S. Part of the reason I want to figure this out is that I'm going to elaborate on this scheme. For example, I'm going to add some code to standard_index so that if the requesting folder contains a DTML Method called "blurb", it'll display the blurb followed by the list of files. In short, I want to create several ways of letting users customize a particular folder's display depending on their level of skill.
