Use an external method for thus and all things will go fine. Tom. At 13:28 31/03/2000 -0800, you wrote:
I read you could define a ZClass instance's method as a field-index of a ZCatalog; but it's not working for me.
The DTML method dept_code is simply:
<dtml-return "_.string.split(jobcode,'-')[0]">
When I call the method directly it returns a single character, the first character of the jobcode.
The method dept_code is defined as a field-index of the ZCatalog JobsCat. But when I access JobsCat thus:
<dtml-in "JobsCat(meta_type='Job Opening', sort_on='dept_code')"> <li> <a href="<dtml-var "JobsCat.getpath(data_record_id_)">"> (<dtml-var dept_code>) <dtml-var jobcode>: <dtml-var title></a> </dtml-in>
the items are not sorted, and dept_code is null.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
