Can someone point me to a good book or document and TAL's. That would include using external DB's like mysql. I've already read The Zope Book and the book on Zope. is there anything that goes into tal and such more in depth? Coming from the PHP world and this object orianted stuff makes sense, BUT I still fall back in my old ways. pokey

TAL and MySQL have nothing in common. TAL and SQL Method objects have some connection. Learn how to use SQL Methods first. Then learn how to use TAL. Then it will be clear how to "combine" them.

I think my little howto is good http://www.zope.org/Members/peterbe/DTML2ZPT Lots of examples. Also lots of examples on http://www.zopelabs.com/cookbook/byCategory?category=PageTemplates

Compared to PHP, Zope is good in that sense that backend code (mysql/SQL) is very separated from the templating (HTML). You'll make misstakes along the way but try to keep them apart as much as possible.
