Hello everyone,

I want to make my own name space with the following situation:

class X:

attributes = {'foo': 'bar'}

x = X()

Then I want to use it like that:

<dtml-with x> <dtml-var foo> </dtml-with>

The result should be : bar

I found out that I have to somehow use TemplateDict and InstanceDict, but I have no clue how to use it....Of course there is no documentation on any web site or in the Zope code itself....

Thanks for you help!!!

I think the key to your problem is the "mapping" option of dtml-with. If your class/External method returns a dictionary, you can add it to the namespace like so: <dtml-with x mapping> <dtml-var foo> </dtml-with> You do not need to explicitly create a new InstanceDict yourself, dtml-with takes care of that. -- | Casey Duncan | Kaivo, Inc. | cduncan@kaivo.com `------------------>
