yellow,
As I was trying to send an attachment via Zope to whatever@somewhere.com i wanted the dtml-boundary tag to do something like this:
<dtml-boundary type=application/octet-stream disposition=attachment encode=base64 name="_['file.filename']">
but I just can't get this to work... the only way it works is to use the attribute name=file The result is an attachment file.dat I want Zope to send the attachment with the real filename.
HELP???
I have run into this problem before. Floating about on the ZOPE site is a patch for the MIMETools, which addes a few *_expr attributes, so you can replace name="_['file.filename']" with: name_expr="_['file.filename]" I have just written my own tag product (may or may not be allowed to release.. we'll see :) I understand now why this is so. It seems that, so far as the product is concerned, there is no real way to tell the difference between a string and an expression. If I am mistaken, I would dearly LOVE someone to point me in the right direction. I currently distinguish vars and strings by if they have 's around them, and expressions are attrib_expr. But I digress.... the patch is your friend.. It is on the ZOPE site (sorry I can't be more specific, but a quick search will find it.) I have used it myself, and know it works. -- Have a better one, Curtis. <dtml-var standard_work_disclaimer>
