Martin, I'm no Zope expert but if you have a property with an ID of "prop1" of type string with a value "first_value" set on a DTML Document then inside the document you can say : <dtml-var prop1> and "first_value" will be substituted into your code at this point, replacing the "<dtml-var prop1>" declaration. I am not sure why you want to get the title? You only need to know the ID to get the value. Are you trying to find a way of looping through all the properties defined for a document? If yes, I don't know how to do this but ask again to zope@zope.org for how to do this. Sorry if this doesn't answer your question. - Ian. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Seehuusen" <martin@grenna.net> To: "Ian Sparks" <isparks@wmute.u-net.com> Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2000 10:50 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] How do you call the string? Thank you for you help! I think I need to explain a bit more! Sorry for not doing that in the first place! OK, I go into Properties for one of my files! then I choose an ID, say "prop1" Type could be, say "String" then a value, say "first_value". now what I would like is to call the string, and get up the ID and the Value. something like <dtml-var type_command> result: ID: Prop1 Value: First_Value Hope this explains a bit more! ;) Thank you for your help.
