i found out that spaces may be replaced by "+" in the link, but how do i get the "+" into the <dtml-var ...> statement?

what you want is <dtml-var blah url_quote>

see the DTML guide: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Guides/DTML-HTML/DTML.5.html

hi there,

i'd like to send default values for an data update with the link to the form

like <a href="adr_change_frm?f_id=<dtml-var id>&f_name=<dtml-var name>">c</a>

unfortunately name may contain spaces.

i found out that spaces may be replaced by "+" in the link, but how do i get the "+" into the <dtml-var ...> statement?

Try <a href="adr_change_frm?f_id=<dtml-var id>&f_name=<dtml-var name fmt=url_quote>">c</a>

I don't know about you, but this looks messy.... Yes, It will work, but... <a href="<dtml-var " 'adr_change_frm?f_id=%s&f_name=%s' % ( id, name ) " fmt=url_quote>c</a> at least, to me, is a fair bit clearer.... However, the url_quote might not like & or ?... but I'm sure this is working in one of my sites currently.
