Converting List properties in DTML Documents to python lists
Is there an API call in Zope that takes the contents of a lines property (such as in a DTML Document) and returns a python list? I couldn't find one. In the alternative, does anyone have a code snippet for converting the contents of a lines property into a list (or appending it to an existing list? I want to write a python function that returns a list of the contents of a DTML Docments lines property. Thanks in advance, Ron

Hi, Ron I think a lines property *is* a python list of strings. Refer to it by name. About the only thing special is that you have to use manage_changeProperties() if you want persistent changes to the property. -- Jim Washington

Yes, lines and tokens are both. Lines split on newline, tokens split on space, to make python lists. Actually, they might be tuples, I'm not sure.
