Yes, you should write HTML when you want HTML ;) This means, attribute values in HTML are supposed to be in " " (See the HTML source in your Browser when you display the page and you will know what I mean :)

So, if you really want DTML here, use:

<input type="text" value="<dtml-var sSQL>" />

or

<input type="text" value="&dtml-sSQL;" />

which is a bit nicer because you dont write a tag inside a tag.

OR use ZPT:

<input type=text" tal:attributes="value request/sSQL" />

was that a realy stupid question or what? 8-< Thanks anyway, Thomas Apostolou ___________________________________________________________ Χρησιμοποιείτε Yahoo!; Βαρεθήκατε τα ενοχλητικά μηνύματα (spam); Το Yahoo!

Hi Thomas,

...

When i just use it as <dtml-var sSQL> everything is ok. When i use it like : <input type="text" value=<dtml-var sSQL>>, i get everything until the first space. For example from "select * from mytable" i get "select".

I'm not sure, but don't you need to enclose it with double quotation marks? Something like this:

<input type="text" value="<dtml-var sSQL>">

You can also try:

<input type="text" value="&dtml-sSQL;">

I suspect this to be the right answer. The way to diagnose this would be to have looked at the page source itself. You would have seen something like:: <input type="text" value=select * from mytable> From this it seems obvious why only 'select' was showing up in the rendered output. --jcc -- "Building Websites with Plone" http://plonebook.packtpub.com/ Enfold Systems, LLC http://www.enfoldsystems.com
