I am sorry, I probably didnt explain my setup properly. The functions that I use are for my use only. You dont necessarily need to use them to do what you want. The minimal thing yoou can do is the following: <dtml-let root="zinesfolder"> <dtml-tree name=root branches_expr="objectIds()" nowrap single> <dtml-var id> </dtml-tree> </dtml-let> This will display your tree (with all the members in there). If you do the following: <dtml-let root="zinesfolder"> <dtml-tree name=root nowrap single> <dtml-var getId> </dtml-tree> </dtml-let> This wil show all the folders int your LocalFS instance. If you want more functionality please provide some more specs and mebb I can help HTH AM sysman wrote:

I did as you suggested, but I am afraid I am still a newbie at the python scripting.

What I did was setup two scripts: filter_tree_nodes pres_docs_get_url

And replaced 'root' with my localfs folder name (zinesfolder).

I setup pres_docs_get_url with 4 parameters, but I don't know which to setup for sure. Are these correct?

item_id, item_ext_list, item_name, root_url

I still get nothing for objects in the folder. Just a thought, could this have something to do with LocalFS and Zope 2.6.0?

In my case:

<dtml-let root="pres_docs_storage"> <dtml-tree name=root branches_expr="filter_tree_nodes()" nowrap single> <dtml-var "pres_docs_get_url( getId(),hasChildNodes(), _['tree-item-url'], _['tree-item-expanded'])"> </dtml-tree> </dtml-let>

where pres_docs_storage is the LocalFS instance.

filter_tree_nodes:

obs = context.objectValues() for ob in obs: if ob.getId() == 'index.html': obs.remove(ob) #not a good idea.. I have since modified this one

return obs

pres_docs_get_url:

#get URL (item_id, children obtained by hasChildNodes()) import string

item_ext_list = item_id.split('.') item_name = item_ext_list[0][2:] item_name = item_name.replace('_',' ')

root_url = container.REQUEST.BASE0 html = ''

if int(children) != 0: if not expanded: html = '<img src=\''+context.images.absolute_url()+'/help_book_closed_icon\'> <a href=\'http://www.neuro-bs.com/pres_docs/html/'+item_url+'\' target=\'content\' class=\'help_menu_folder\'>'+string.capwords(item_name)+'</a>' else: html = '<img src=\''+context.images.absolute_url()+'/help_book_open_icon\'> <a href=\'http://www.neuro-bs.com/pres_docs/html/'+item_url+'\' target=\'content\' class=\'help_menu_folder\'>'+string.capwords(item_name)+'</a>'

else: html = '<img src=\''+context.images.absolute_url()+'/help_page_icon\'> <a href=\'http://www.neuro-bs.com/pres_docs/html/'+item_url+'\' target=\'content\' class=\'help_menu_item\'>'+string.capwords(item_name)+'</a>'

return html

I installed LocalFS, which is pretty cool because I need to add large files for users, but I need to use the dtml-tree tag to list the folders contents. When I use it normally it doesn't work:

<dtml-tree LocalFSFolder branches="objectValues" sort="id"> <dtml-var id> </dtml-tree>

I have tried several different options, and I have searched the internet and newsgroups, but I haven't found much. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
