hey guys,

sorry, i have another question: How can I display dates and time smart.

That what I did so far: I wrote an external method that returns a DateTime object. I call it: <!--#var get_current_time fmt=aCommon--> But I want to display everything like I wish using strftime syntax.

You can use strftime formats with date-time objects, as in: <!--#var get_current_time fmt="%Y/%m/%d"--> Note that you can use ZopeTime to get the current time: <!--#var ZopeTime fmt="%Y/%m/%d"-->

I tried to pass a format attribute to the external function, but I could not figure out, how to call this function with an attribute.

If the eternal method accepted keywork arguments, you could then use a similar syntax: <!--#var "get_current_time(fmt=;%Y/%m/%d')"--> -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@digicool.com Python Powered!
