Since cookies have been brought up, I tried the following code (Using Steve's example): <dtml-if expr="RESPONSE.setCookie('name', 'value', path='/', expires=( ZopeTime() + (1.0/102.0) )"> "You have cookies enabled" <dtml-else> "Your browser does not support cookies" </dtml-if> The cookie gets set and the text that displays is from the else part, so the cookie is set and I tell the user their browser doesn't support cookies. 1. I want to know if the user's browser supports cookies. I am getting ready to develop a help page for people using our proxy server and I need to add their browser capabilities to a database and respond to the user the settings they have in a "layman" terminology. I plan on putting in a <dtml-call> on each side of the else that will update the database. I am also looking at <dtml-var REQUEST> which gives me information I need. I have searched the Zope Site and cannot find help on this. 2. Can I display individual parts of the the REQUEST results or do I have to parse the results in an external method using python? 3. And then on another topic, can I create a product from a directory tree in my Zope Server or do I have to create a product from the beginning majorly because of the syntax used in creating a product?

I learned this one the hard way.

Had a python method id: expireTime parameters: self body: t = self.ZopeTime() + (1.0/192.0) # 7.5 minutes in the future t = t.toZone('GMT')

return t.strftime("%A, %d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S GMT") ------------------------------------------------------

Was trying the following

<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setCookie('name', 'value', path='/', expires=expireTime)">

This does NOT work.

THe following works MUCH better

<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setCookie('name', 'value', path='/', expires=expireTime())">
