Re: [Zope] Passing parameters to external methods

I need to pass some parameters to my external methods.

I have an external method that looks (somewhat) like this:

def extAccess(self, accttype_cde): return accttype_cde

....

<dtml-if "extAccess(accttype_cde='COM')"> <b>The external method returned true</b> </dtml-if>

I get the following error for the above statement: Error Type: TypeError Error Value: not enough arguments; expected 2, got 0

External methods try to be intelligent with respect to parameter passing and sometimes they get it wrong. You may explicitly pass all parameters: <dtml-if "extAccess(this(),'COM')"> .... This should work. Dieter
