Does Anybody Know ANYTHING About Formulator?
Hi; I have a REALLY simple question about Formulator for anyone whose ever used it. How do I include a Formulator form in a DTML Document? Is it not possible to include it like one would a DTML Method, or *must* it be called as would a DTML Document? TIA, BenO
I looked through a lot of the docs and changes but cannot find anything specific. I have a very big 2.3.3 installation (with an entire copy to play with) but I am not sure the easiest way to go about the upgrade. - I can install 2.4.2 just fine (it compiles and runs) Should I build a clean 2.4.2 and move over all the stuff (a pain)? Unpack 2.4.2 into the 2.3.3 directory and just build it over the old one? What I would really like is the 2.3.3 --> 2.4.2 update file which seems not to exist? Anyone have some hints before I spend more time banging my head against a wall? BZ
copy the Data.fs and products into the new 2.4.2 sandbox and restart... this is one of these situations where a SOFTWARE_HOME / INSTANCE_HOME ZEO setup can make your life *so* much easier. for my sandboxes, switching to a new zope release takes about 1 minute. jens On Sunday, October 28, 2001, at 07:50 , BZ wrote:

Hi! First of all, there is a dedicated Formulator list at formulator-general@lists.sourceforge.net ...
How do I include a Formulator form in a DTML Document?
There is no such thing as a Formulator form. As the packaged examples show, formulator just provides all you need to BUILD forms. So you'll have a DTML Method (or ZPT) anyway to actually render your form fields. And this method can of course be called from another DTML Document/Method as usual. Cheers Joachim
