Pedro, You can't use DTML to do this... you need to instead use Python by constructing an External Method. Please see the External Method HowTo at http://www.zope.org/Documentation/How-To/ExternalMethods You may want to pick up a copy of "Learning Python" by Mark Lutz and David Ascher (O'Reilly Books) also...

Sorry about that!!!

What I want to do is, in a file that is in a Local filesystem, analise that file and get the information that I need to show. For example: the messages in a filesystem are in mime type, everything is in one text. The file that have that message, the one I want, is like that, so what I want to do is look for some words, like From, Subject, Date and the content, and display that in an organized form, like when we see the mails.

Are you seeing what I want to do, now?

Do you know what can I do to resolve this? If yes, please tell me the code in dtml-tags, if you don't mind, ok?

Thanks,

Pedro
