This has never turned me down. Perhaps not rocket surgery but useful. try: is_int = int(intordigit) except: is_int = 0 peter ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kerekes Lajos" <lkerekes@xperts.hu> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 1:21 PM Subject: [Zope] String contains only digits

Hi!

I have a form variable (select/option) which gives a number, or value "A". I have to check the value, is it contains only digits. I use in python script "if container.REQUEST.state in '0123456789'". Is there any other way to check? Because string object has neither "isdecimal", "isdigit" nor "isnumeric" method. I use zope 2.3.3 under Linux.

Thanks:
