I have a dtml-documentish zclass and have created a custom edit method for it so that I can do an automatic reindex when each instance is edited. I created this custom form by simply copying the source html that is generated for the standard edit form, and then replacing the static parts of what I copied with various <dtml-var > inserts (see below). This seemed to go according to plan until I realised that something strange is happening when I try to view this edit form for an instance of the zclass. In most cases, everything seems normal, but when I try to edit an instance that has a property set to 'private', my 'privacy' method kicks in and redirects me away from the edit form to my standard 'Restricted Page'. The redirection is written into the text of the instance I am trying to edit, so I expected that by using <dtml-var document_src>, the actual source would get placed in the text area without being processed. This is what appears to happen when the instance does not have the 'private' property. I guess therefore, my question is, am I using document_src correctly? Is is possible that your edit form is called in the context of you ZInstance?
I'm not sure I completely understand the terminology you use, but I guess it sounds right that the edit form method is called 'on' (in my terminology ;-) ) the Zclass instance. It is in that way that the <dtml-var id/title/get_size/etc> retrieve the attributes of the instance and not the method itself... is that correct? Is that what you mean?
Then, it might be able that *it* interpretes the "private" and redirects before "document_src" is executed at all.
Each Zclass instance has <dtml-call privacy><dtml-if "available* == 1"><dtml-call RESPONSE.redirect(restricted)><dtml-else>blah</dtml-if> . (* set by the privacy method). Thanks for your help with that btw :-). However, the edit form method does not have this code in it. As far as I can gather, the only time the method gets to 'see' the code shown above is when it inserts <dtml-var document_src>. What am I missing? tim
