Hi Dan, When you call the dtml-tree method, you need to provide a branches_expr=some_method - see http://www.zope.org/Members/anthony/tree-coding-tricks or search the zope.org site for dtml-tree for other how-to's. This method should only return the objects you wish to see in the tree - so it does the filtering for you. hth Laurie -----Original Message----- From: zope-admin@zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of Dan Meszaros Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 8:42 AM To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] dtml-tree items filtering Hi, i'm trying to solve this thing: i'm building a sitemap. i have folders, that i want to show, and want to hide the others. to differentaite them, i leave the title string empty for those folders i need to hide. i used: <dtml-tree sort=title> <dtml-if "id != 'acl_users'"> <dtml-if "title!=''"> <A HREF="&dtml-absolute_url;" target=right> <IMG border=0 SRC="<dtml-var icon>"><dtml-var title></A> </dtml-if> </dtml-if> </dtml-tree> but having a folder with no title and a subfolder in it, the above gives me the expand-plus-sign in the tree (but show no icon) for that folder. can someone help? regards -dm _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
