Use the sessioning components of Zope 2.5+. See http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZopeBook/BasicObject.stx#2-77 . There are also examples of using sessioning in the Examples folder of newer Zopes. - C ----- Original Message ----- From: <tille@debian.org> To: "Zope user list" <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2002 4:40 PM Subject: [Zope] How to store variables in one session

Hello,

I want to write an application which builds a SQL query after answering a set of questions which were presented on several HTML pages in some forms. At first I've thought that I could store the answers in the REQUEST object but I found out that this object does not store values of variables over several requests. Thus I need a way to store some variables over a certain number of user interactions.

In the Zope Developers Guide I found something about "ZODB Persistent Components" (Chapter 4) but first I do not understand how to do this with dtml and second I'm really unsure whether this is the right method for my application. I would like to know what is the best way to store some values temporarily in one user session.

Kind regards

Andreas.
