Hi, The serail number has 3 records (cell_number) I wish to update each record with the proper pbtemp information. My input is still as follows: <dtml-in expr="_.range(3)"> <input type="text" name="pbtemp[sequence-index]" size="6"> </dtml-in> Alexis Roda sent me directly some suggestions that I tried but it produced an error. <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('serial_number', 'mem0314701')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cell_number', 0)"> <dtml-in expr="_.range(3)" prefix="p"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cell_stack_number', cell_number+1)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cell_number', cell_number+1)"> <dtml-call expr="testing(parameter=pbtemp[p_index])"> </dtml-in> But I see this error: Error Type: NameError Error Value: global name 'pbtemp' is not defined The zsql is as follows: update atp_fields set pbtemp=<dtml-if pbtemp><dtml-if "pbtemp==''">NULL<dtml-else> <dtml-sqlvar pbtemp type=float></dtml-if><dtml-else>NULL</dtml-if> where serial_number=<dtml-sqlvar serial_number type="string"> and cell_stack_number=<dtml-sqlvar cell_stack_number type="int"> The zsql works when I test it. At first I was just trying to display the values of pbtemp[x], but Alexis gave me zsql call statement so I that is where I am at now. -----Original Message----- From: Passin, Tom [mailto:tpassin@mitretek.org] Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2003 2:04 PM To: 'Zope@Zope.

... If I display <dtml-var pbtemp[sequence-index], I will see ['11', '22', '33']. I need to store each variable in the three seperate rows in a table.

Row1 pbtemp[1] Row2 pbtemp[2] Row3 pbtemp[3] I believe I need to use another <dtml-in expr="_.range(3)"> statement but I am coming up short in the correct syntax.

First you have to decide what HTML you want to produce. Then you can work out how to generate it. I take it that you want something like this - <tr><td><input name='name1'></td></tr> <tr><td><input name='name2'></td></tr> <tr><td><input name='name2'></td></tr> This is easy - you just put it into the loop you already have - <dtml-in expr="_.range(3)"> <tr><td><input type="text" name="pbtemp[sequence-index]" size="6"></td></tr> </dtml-in> There is no sense trying tp generate anything if you do not know - at least have a good idea of - the results you want. Always work out the html first. If this is not what you had in mind, then please communciate the output you want.
