The problem is that in the sql insert command, the following: "<dtml-sqlvar instructions_recette type="blob">" is not recognized by the Z sql method.
Also, what are the valid data type for zsql method? The only one I could find where string or int.
You've missed float and nb. See Zope Help - DTML reference - sqlvar sqlvar: Inserts SQL variables The type of the variable. Valid types include: string, int, float and nb. nb means non-blank string. The type attribute is required and is used to properly escape inserted variable. Those are Python types, not DB types. I guess "text" would be a judicious choice for a textarea, but I'm not MySQL-blob user so I can't guarantee it will do. Let us know.
