Hello again :-) I am really trying new stuff here so bear with me please .. when you have a dtml-in tag you can set sort=attribute But how do you do that in a python script? You can't do: for item in folder.objectValues('lala') sort='something': So how do you do it then ? TIA, Gitte Wange

Something like this: from DTML import SortEx # I m not sure about "DTML", may be "from DT_Util" or such for item in SortEx(folder.objectValues('lala'), (("something",),)) The second rgument is a tuple of tuples that lists sort prameters. Every inner tuple constructed as follows: (attribute, function, order) where "attribute" is an attribute of the object you want to sort on, "function" is a comparison function, and "order" is "ASC" or "DESC". You my use predefined comparison functions "cmp", "locle" (alias "strcoll"), "nocase" and "locale_nocase" (alias "locale_strcoll"). You may omit sort order (default is "ASC"), or you may omit both function (default is "cmp") and sort order. You cannot omit function, but use sort order; use "cmp" as a function.
