Hi, Learning dtml and zope... I am trying to call an sql method called get_record and pass a parameter to it. This works if I hardcode the value into the dtml method like this: <dtml-in expr="get_record(PermitNumber=12345)"> However, The above line is in a dtml method called edit_dtml So I want to call edit_dtml from an html document like this: <a href="edit_dtml?PermitNumber=<dtml-var PermitNumber>"> <dtml-var Company null=""></a> The value of PermitNumber gets passed okay and can be displayed in the called page (edit_dtml) with: <dtml-var PermitNumber> But I need to plug it into the dtml-in expresssion something like this: <dtml-in expr="get_record(PermitNumber=<dtml-var PermitNumber>)"> But this generates a syntax error. There must be a correct way to do this. Any ideas on how else I might do it? I assume that the part after expr=" must be python code and this is why this does not work ??
