Hi, I'm new to Zope, but I'm eagerly learning it. I like the paradigm - it seems to fit the way I think. This is my first post here. I've hit a snag, and I'm hoping someone more experienced can point me in the best direction. I'm developing an application that needs user-modifiable pages. I already have a Zope form where the user can edit text properties of an object, and another page that displays those properties as HTML. My problem is, I want each authenticated user to be editing their own instance of this object, and I also want the URL to be the same for each user. eg fred sees http://host/mypage as fred's editable page mary sees http://host/mypage as mary's editable page What is the best approach I should take to achieve this in DTML?

AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName() returns the name of the current user. You could use this in the DTML of mypage to select the object you are working on. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | Tel: +31-35-6254545 Fax: +31-35-6254555 | mailto:mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ------------------------------------------
