I'd like to setup a simple list of emails stored as dtml docs with the emails as id.
My solution may be (ok, is) ugly, but it worked for us (we wanted a ZClass with the emails as id, but otherwise the problem was the same). We ended up naming all the ids email__AT__domain.name, and replaced the __AT__ with an @ symbol whenever we needed to render it in a page. Something like: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('email',restore_at_in_email(text=id))"> in the page to be rendered, where restore_at_in_email was an acquired DTML method with the content: <dtml-var expr="_.string.replace(text,'__AT__','@')"> We have a corresponding method replace_at_in_email with the content: <dtml-var expr="_.string.replace(text,'@','__AT__')"> I think we used replace_at_in_email in the constructor code for the ZClass; I didn't see it in my quick scan through the ZODB-stored code. Feel free to comment on how this can be made cleaner. -- Mike Renfro / R&D Engineer, Center for Manufacturing Research, 931 372-3601 / Tennessee Technological University -- renfro@tntech.edu
