I have the following statement:

id is some arbitrary numeric value that will change.

Is the If tag being resolved to: <dtml-if "'1.jpg' in somelist"> or <dtml-if "<dtml-var id>.jpg in somelist">

The second one. You can't have dtml inside dtml. Instead, what you need to do is this: <dtml-if "id + '.jpg' in somelist"> Actually... if id is numeric then you need to do: <dtml-if "_.str(id) + '.jpg' in somelist"> -- Nick Garcia | ngarcia@codeit.com CodeIt Computing | http://codeit.com _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
