My first attempt at a python script and the back-up DTMLMethod dont work. What am I doing wrong? Is there a cross-reference guide to learn Python scripts from a Zope perspective? (the learn Python books I have yet to immerse into are not in a Zope context.)
I recommend to write a Python script which returns the result of calling "objectIds" with appropriate variables. Use the script's id as value for your selection property.
I have tried this by placing the 'objectIds' in the Value field for /multiple selection/propertysheets/zClass. I get this error: Error Type: InError Error Value: Strings are not allowed as input to the in tag. ###DTMLMethod 'objectIds' /in zClass/methods <dtml-with folder_of_anotherZclass> <dtml-in expr="objectValues('anotherZclass')"> <dtml-var id> </dtml-in> </dtml-with> Q's: This works fine when rendering from a folder not in the zclass! why not a zclass? How do I convert to a list? Am I placing 'objectIds' in the wrong space? Python script Here is my attempt to convert this to a python script. What is the Python script equivalent to "dtml-with"? Error Type: NameError Error Value: global name 'folder_of_anotherZclass' is not defined ###Python script 'objectIds' /in zClass/methods myList=[] for id in folder_of_anotherZclass.objectValues('anotherZclass'): myList.append(id) return myList Thank you for the guidance, -Trevor
