What I want to do is have a page served by zope which is in fact on another non Zope server but

It all depends on whether how much you know (or want to know) about Zope and Python. A simple <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.yahoo.com')"> redirects your page to Yahoo page. This is a very simple solution. This way you don't violate any law. The next simplest solution is to use HTML frames. You display the foreign page in a frame. But you must be obtaining data from a consenting third party or provide disclosure statements or features to remove the frame. The best thing to do is to use Python external methods, where you can extract things from a foreign source and even strip things that you don't want. (I don't know whether DTML has any method to do this directly. But using Python external methods allows you much more flexibility, because you can filter the fetched data dynamically, using functions from the string or the regular expression modules.) If you don't know how to use external methods in Zope, you'll have to learn it first. -------------------------------------- import httplib def gethtml(self, addr, page): h = httplib.HTTP(addr) h.putrequest('GET', page) h.putheader('Accept', 'text/html') h.endheaders() errcode, errmsg, headers = h.getreply() print errcode # Should be 200 f = h.getfile() data = f.read() # Get the raw HTML f.close() # perform here whatever string operation # you need to do on data... return data --------------------------------- After the external method has been implemented, you you can call it by using: <dtml-var "gethtml('www.yahoo.com', '/index.html')"> Hung Jung ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
