- Using ZTemplates in PHP-like way?
I just wondered... Is it possible, (using mod_actions or something) to use ZTemplates with Apache, somewhat like PHP? (I admit it... I have some projects where I might consider not using the Zope ODB... ;) PHP seems nice enough, except for its ugly language... :) -- Magnus Lie Hetland www.pvv.org/arcadia <arcadia@pvv.org>

You could certainly write a CGI program that gathered the environment and form variables and called Document Template. But this would be pretty limited. You could do things like make the background green for Netscape users and red for IE users. Without a rich object system behind the scenes, your not going to be able to do anything very cool, IMHO. Without anything interesting to template, templates are boring. -Amos P.S. And why bother, when you could use SSI or any number of other options.
