[Zope-DB] multiple table updates

[Eric Kamm]

Sorry, I didn't read that closely enough I think.

I would probably use ":records" to markup the form
variables so that I'd be starting with a list of
dictionaries back on the server.

Then I'd put a <dtml-in> loop in my ZSQL method which
built the multiple SQL update statements which need to
be executed.

Alternatively, you could make a Python script which calls
a simpler ZSQL method (one which doesn't need to generate
multiple statements) for each record in the list.

You can use <dtml-var sql_delimiter> to delimit multiple
SQL statements in your ZSQL method.

I have a form which retrieves data from a database table and displays it for 
the user to amend. Many records are able to be changed and i would then like 
to be able to update all these records in the table. I can not find a way to 
do this as yet. Can anyone help?
