-----Original Message----- From: James W. Howe [mailto:jwh@allencreek.com What I don't know how to do, however, is modify the way the object renders itself by default. For example, if I use the following:

<dtml-var CaptionedImageObjectInstance>

I get an img tag for the image associated with my object. What I want to be able to do is generate my own tags so as to include caption and attribution information in a standard format. How can I do this?

Overload the __str__ method. Unless there is some other product or ZClass someone has made that allready does this, you will need to create a Python base class and override __str__ there.

After poking around, it would appear that the Renderable product does just what you describe. James W. Howe mailto:jwh@allencreek.com Allen Creek Software, Inc. pgpkey: http://ic.net/~jwh/pgpkey.html Ann Arbor, MI 48103
