Many thanks for your suggestion.
Is there a worked example of doing this anywhere?
There seem to be quite a few steps involved in trying to get this working and I'm no expert in writing python scripts, and it will probably take me a couple of days to get this working.
Well, it's really easy. Create 'linkList' (Python Script) in the folder where you page lives or somewhere higher in folder hierarchy:
## Script (Python) "linkList" return [ ('http://www.google.com/', 'Google'), ('http://www.yahoo.com/', 'Yahoo'), ]
If your page is Page Template, it maybe something like this
<html> <body> <h1>Search Engines</h1> <tal:block repeat="item here/linkList"> <a tal:content="python:item[1]" tal:attributes="href python:item[0]"></a><br /> </tal:block> </body> </html>
If you page is DTML Method, you can do the same using <dtml-in> tag.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I really am a novice when it comes to all this and you are probably presuming more expertise than I have. I created a Page Template exactly as you suggested. It's called test and is in the testsite folder - the contents are pasted from your example. The python script was pasted into a file object called linkList which has a Content Type of text/x-unknown-content-type. When I load the 'test' file and click on the Test tab I get:- Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: __getitem__ Any ideas on what I have missed out or where to look for a working example? -- John
