Lol DTML is not being deprecated. That answer to the myth is a myth. It is in Zope 3. It is still being used in none compliant situations such as SQL statements, css, javascript. -- Andy McKay Agmweb Consulting http://www.agmweb.ca ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josef Meile" <jmeile@hotmail.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 8:55 AM Subject: [Zope] Re: Zope Myths?
Hi,
We've been giving some thought to the best way of informing people about Zope. An outline of the ground we plan to cover is at:
http://www.bris.ac.uk/is/projects/cms/zope/ucisa-sg/mythz.htm
It's interesting, but there is something that worries me:
Documental Template Markup Language (DTML) is now deprecated in favour of Zope Presentation Templates (ZPT). DTML, as well as being "proprietary", often lead to code that was hard to maintain. ZPT allows for a much better separation of presentation and logic (the logic being done in Python or Perl). Moreover, ZPT is XHTML compliant and can be edited with a wide range of tools.
Is it true? Does it mean that future versions of Zope won't support DTML?
Thanks, Josef
