Baby steps... I ran the Gadfly example, which worked great, and caused several epiphanies. I can deal with templates now... SO I decided to try some modifications. I now have a "View the Data" document in the gadflySample folder that shows me the contents of the zopedelic's zopista table in a nice format. Woo-hoo. Then I decided to try a simple input form that would send values to a modified insert_data Z SQL Method, which in turn would update the database. I have: <FORM NAME="insert" ACTION="insert_data"> two <SELECT> boxes, named "cola" and "colb" <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Insert Data"> When I select two numbers and click the "Insert Data" button, it goes and tries the insert_data method, which I've modified thus: insert into zopista (col_a,col_b) values (<!--#var cola-->, <!--#var colb-->) The insert_data method first says, "This query requires no input." Clicking the "Submit query" button yields an error (not unexpectedly ;), to wit: "Error, exceptions.KeyError: cola SQL used: Could not render the query template!" I'm missing something big in my Zope Zen... Where might I find instruction on creating a query that will take forms-based input for its variables? Is there a cool method around that shows the contents of all the variables available (like the PHP <? phpinfo() ?> )?
