import is available in Python Scripts but not Python Methods. PS is available in Zope 2.3.x. Shane

You can using the string module in Python Methods the same way you can in DTML. There's no need to import anything. Try _.string.split(...) _______________________ Ron Bickers Logic Etc, Inc. rbickers@logicetc.com

Hi,

I have a Python method that needs to use the string module. In the method body I have the 'import string' statement but when I try it =>

Error Type: ImportError Error Value: __import__ not found

The documentation collaborates that import statements (the string module specifically) can be used in Python methods. The method body is...

import string text = details y = string.split(text,"x") studentMatric = y[0] studentRecord = y[1] return studentMatric + studentRecord

.., which results in the above error. Can anyone suggest a reason for this? I think (hope) it'll work if I put it in my extensions directory.
