I would like to test the value of a field entered on a form in a zpt, but I'm don't know the syntax

basically I would like to do something like this

<div tal:condition="request/form/fieldA=1"> do this <p metal:use-macro="here/atemplate/macros/may" /> </div>

<div tal:condition="python:request['fieldA']==1"> ... </div> tal has no expression language.

but this doesn't seem to want to work.

Also, I would like to be able to use the same request object in both my template and the macro, but my macro doesn's seem to have access to the same request object.

This statement is likely wrong since the 'request' is always available - and of course there is only 'request' object over the lifetime of a HTTP request. -aj -aj
