DTML is pretty horrible. Does anyone have any solutions to allow DTML methods to be generated using a more Pythonesque interface? It seems to me that DTML is a bit of a shoddy half way house between HTML and Python. Cheers, Nick.

Use Python Methods (http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/PythonMethod) or External Methods (available in all Zope installations RTFM). They will probably not completely replace DTML though. hth Rik

For someone who's posting HTML mail to a non-HTML list, you're a fine one to talk ;-) There are discussion happening in this area on http://dev.zope.org. Look for "Documents and Templates" or something similar. You could also just use lots of PythonMethods... cheers, Chris
