dtml-let introduces a new scope. Don't use it. Instead consider one of two options 1) Use dtml-set. You'll have to download and install the product, but it can do this sort of thing. 2) Use python. I'd probably do it this way unless your table is very tall. The python would query the underlying data, munge it and compute totals, and present the easily rendered list of dicts or list of brains to the final dtml. You'd also be set to switch to ZPT before Chris hits you with a stick. Charlie

Hi,

I'm trying to output a table using dtml-in, that shows a certain number of rows in that table, then adds up the rows not shown, and shows an "other values" row, and finally shows totals for all the data in the table.

So the output would be something like this:

Language Requests Uniques Sessions Percent Time to Load it 92384 293 231 56.1% 3.0 fr 51563 65487 21 31.3% 1.0 de 9834 9648 521 6.0% 3.2

[Other] 1 5416 25163 31 3.3% 0.0 Total: 164653 101245 354935 100% 1.44

The dtml I'd like to use would be something like this:

dtml-let "set all variables to zero" dtml-in the request dtml-if sequence-number <= floor output a row with data dtml-else dtml-let "add up "other values" data using variables set at top" dtml-if sequence-end output "other values" row output "totals" row /dtml-let /dtml-in /dtml-let

But dtml-let is zeroing the variables each iteration. Is there a better way to do what I'm trying to do?

Thanks,

Ale
