Re: [Zope] saving/creating an object to an exsisting folderish object
Will... I just found out that I'm suppose to migrate to ZPT. But, I start with DTML to begin with and I've be doing it for the past two years, so it's kind hard for me to move on to xml and ZPT right off the bat. But the tag:attribute structure still confuses me. Anyways, thanks for all your help Andreas, couldn't done it without you forcing me to think about my problem. ----- Original Message ---- From: Andreas Jung <lists@zopyx.com> To: Allen Huang <swapp0@yahoo.com>; Zope <zope@zope.org> Sent: Monday, January 8, 2007 4:39:32 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] saving/creating an object to an exsisting folderish object --On 7.

I found the solution... use _.getitem(name)
this took some book flipping through some basic methods of zope modules in 'The Book of ZOPE' by Beehive. A pretty good book for beginners
Why (the hell) are you (still) using DTML (as newbie). You are strongly encouraged to use ZPT. -aj __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

I started using zope right about when TAL/ZPT was fully rolled out (2.4.x or so)...to me the dtml structure is confusing as heck to look at...it's all relative... :-) Go for it, make the switch, eventually you'll be really glad you did. Not the least because almost nobody is going to help you with dtml any more...! TAL is not easy reading for me either but it sure beats the alternatives. I am easily disappointed by other web dev platforms that despite all kinds of other sophistication (ruby-rails, alfresco etc.) still keep using or creating yet one more HTML-munging template "language." I mean, how 20th century is that? cheers, John S. -- John Schinnerer - MA, Whole Systems Design ------------------------------------------ - Eco-Living - Whole Systems Design Services People - Place - Learning - Integration john@eco-living.net http://eco-living.net
