hiya!

I can't solve this problem ... hmmm ..

I need a menu in a select list with all folders listed that have an attribute called "in_the_list" (boolean, 1)

this dtml method ("list_values") is called from another dtml method and calls itself recursively:

<dtml-in "objectValues (['Folder'])" skip_unauthorized> <dtml-if "_.hasattr(_['sequence-item'], 'in_the_list')"> <option value="<dtml-var "absolute_url()">"><dtml-var title_or_id> <dtml-with sequence-item only> <dtml-var list_values> </dtml-with> </dtml-if> </dtml-in>

but this doesn't work ... I think this is an aquisition problem (?) but I'm not able to solve it ...

your help is highly appreciated!

thx & tia

I would personally do this in a Python script. But, here is a way in DTML. Basically, you can access properties without worrying about acquisition by using the hasProperty and getProperty methods of the Folder. Something like: <dtml-in expr="objectValues('Folder')" skip_unauthorized> <dtml-if expr="getProperty('in_the_list', 0)"> do stuff </dtml-if> </dtml-in> You don't need the _['sequence-item'] stuff because dtml-in already puts the current object at the top of the namespace stack for you. hth, -- | Casey Duncan | Kaivo, Inc. | cduncan@kaivo.com `------------------>
