I want to do this with DTML.

<select>
<dtml-in getDicts>
<option>
        HOW CAN I PUT the keys 'name' HERE ????
</option>
</dtml-in>
</select>
(getDicts returns the above list of dictionaries)


You probably need the "mapping" attribute of "dtml-in" -- and maybe some
background reading (you should read the documentation (Zope Book 2.7 edition,
online on plope.org).

Ferhat,

If you are new to Zope do yourself a favor and forget about DTML. Yeah its fun and (seemingly) easy to learn. But I argue for Page Templates + python. Python is so much clearer than dtml - and Page Templates + python *is* the favored zope paradigm.

But if you insist - Casey Duncan wrote a nice product (dtml-eval) and an interesting discussion about DTML and what to watch out for ...
