Questions: 1. The problem with this DTML method is that all the DTML Documents and Folders are represented as a link in the nav bar. I want to build intelligence into this DTML method to make the tab / cell for the current document just textual (as opposed to a link). If I am calling this method from foo_html, I do not the "tab" for foo_html to be a link. How do I do this? I'm guessing some kind of #if.
First you can store the your url:
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('my_url', absolute_url())">
Then, when you call your method, you can test whether your url is the current url
<dtml-if "absolute_url()==my_url">
The must be another way of doing this, but I can't remember. Does someone else see how this could be done differently ?
Thanks. It took a bit of hackage on my part because I was calling the subcategories DTML Method like so: <!--#with aq_parent--> <!--#var subcategories--> <!--#/with--> As you can see, I'm in a different name space inside the DTML method. I put in the REQUEST.set in the main DTML Document instead of the DTML method and it worked like a charm. Only pain now is that all my DTML Documents now need to have the REQEST.set directive in them. Not a big deal.
2. Currently, the TD cells of the table vary in length based on the contents of the cell. I want all the TDs to be of equal length. I want to first count the number of DTML Documents and Folders and make each TD to be width 100/n % (where n is the number of Documents and Folders). Any ideas on how I can do math inside DTML methods? You can set a REQUEST variable with the result of your computation: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('width', 100 / _.len(objectIds(['DTML Document','Folder'])))">
This worked like a charm. Thanks! S. -- Lisa: It's full, Dad, that means you have to take out the trash. Bart: Yup, that's the rule. "He who tops it off, drops it off." Homer: Nuh-uh. "It isn't filled until it's spilled." Sudhakar C13n http://www.aunet.org/thaths/ Lead Indentured Slave
