Andrey, One way would be to simply test for it on your form action page. <dtml-if "image_1 == ''"> <p>Sorry! You need to include an image.</p> <dtml-else> <dtml-call "manage_addImage( id=imageId, file=REQUEST[ image_1], REQUEST=REQUEST )"> </dtml-if> Jamey

Hi! Don't know if it is really a zope question, but I have a problem, verifying if e.g. input <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="image_1" SIZE="50"> is empty or not using <dtml-unless " REQUEST[ 'image_1']=='' "> <dtml-call "manage_addImage( id=imageId, file=REQUEST[ image_1], REQUEST=REQUEST )"> </dtml-unless> well, I think the <input type=file... is not a string, but what I want to test is if the user put in the filename and not whether the really existing file is empty, so how could aI do it?

I would appreciate any hints Thank you in advance Andrey
