(I always wanted to be a lumberjack! :) After RTFMing and flailing at DTML all night, I'm about stumped. No pun intended. I'm trying to use dtml-tree to create a selective menu of objects based on whether or not the object has an "add_to_menu" property. I've pretty much figured out that I need a wrapper around objectValues that will filter out the objects that don't have the "add_to_menu" property. This wrapper would be called with dtml-tree's "branches" attribute. I'm trying to do this wrapper in a DTML method and I've gotten all the way to where I have to return a list of "actual objects", so says the DTML Quick Reference. Is there someone who could 'splain to me how to build a list of objects in DTMLese? Here's what I have so far (obviously not working): <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ret', '')"> <dtml-in "objectValues()" sort=id> <dtml-if "_.has_key('add_to_menu')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ret', ret + ' ' + _['sequence-item'])"> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> <dtml-return "_.string.split(ret)"> Right off the bat, Zope is giving me attribute errors about REQUEST, but I'm not sure how else to do a set(), other than with REQUEST or RESPONSE in front of it. When I ran it stand-alone, I was *not* getting attribute errors and *was* getting output that looked remotely like the guts of the desired objects. Spare clues anyone?
