Perfect. <dtml-var "REQUEST['subject']"> worked. Thanks so much. -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Hobbs [mailto:toolkit@magma.ca] Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 3:38 PM To: Laura McCord; zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] Syntax for zpt form and submitting to a dtml method ----- Original Message ----- From: "Laura McCord" <Laura.McCord@doucet-austin.com>

For learning purposes if I have a zope page tamplate form with a <select> using a dtml method as a action:

<form action="dtml_method"> <select name="subject"> <option>Select</option> <option tal:repeat="result here/view_subject" value="" tal:attributes="value result/subject" tal:content="result/subject">data</option> </SELECT> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"> </form>

How would I access the value of subject in the dtml_method:

<dtml-var subject>

The above did not work. Any Ideas?

Try: <dtml-var "REQUEST.get('subject', 'None')"> or <dtml-var "REQUEST['subject']"> Jonathan
