As documented, 'structure' only works with tal:content|replace. -aj
Bummer. Well, I'm trying to call a script that will render content to the Web, like this: <a tal:attributes="href python:here.a_script(str(x))"> which calls a script that does this: return "<html><body>" + x + "</body></html>" but of course it delivers this to the browser: <html><body>x</body></html> Any way to work around this problem?

Why would you put HTML inside an HREF? Sounds to me like you want <html tal:replace="structure python: here.a_script(str(x))" /> or something like that. ________________________________ From: zope-bounces@zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org] On Behalf Of tonylabarbara@aol.com Sent: August 15, 2007 10:45 To: lists@zopyx.com; zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] How Do I "Structure" This?

Well, I'm trying to do the following: 1) generate a list of variables using tal:define 2) pass those variables to a script, that will then make a few edits and render everything as an HTML page. I'm doing this as a work-around to the problem I posted earlier, that nobody apparently could solve, called "Form-Through-Script", where I was trying to call a script using a form action but couldn't pass the page as a variable. Well, I can pass variables and reconstruct the page, but then I have the problem of missing "structure". Conversely, it could pass those variables to a page that would then render, but how to pass them and render the page? There has GOT to be a way to work around this!

In my opinion the correct sentence will be: <a tal:attributes="href python: here.a_script(x)" /> But they are trying to say you that structure don't do anything here because an anchor expect or a URL or a javascript You are trying to put an html code into an anchor but this don't work on HTML or xHTML If you want to execute the scritp when the user clicks on the anchor you need to use something like: <a tal:attributes="href <the url of the script>" /> -> <a tal:attributes="href string:${here.a_script/absolute_url}?doc=${x}" /> and when the user clicks the anchor the script will be executed can you find a reference help about HTML o xHTML with an anchor like this: <a href="<html><body>your page here</body></html>" /> no, isn't it? then structure don't do nothing here... 2007/8/15, tonylabarbara@aol.com <tonylabarbara@aol.com>:

Yeah, as you discovered later, leaving bits of things people suggest off is stupid ;-)
So it doesn't look like the "string:${..." workaround worked :(
It's not a workaround. There's nothing to workaround.
And I don't think I need to URLquote.
Oh? And what happens when x contains non-url-safe characters like spaces, slashes, colons, etc? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
Oops...forgot the "absolute_url" part <:-) Works fine now. Thanks!
