[Zope-dev] DTML Method Aqusition vs. Python Method Aqusition in Products

Fri, 23 Jul 1999 03:14:06 +0200

Hi,
I'm looking for info about aqusition in Zope.

I have the following problem.

I have a Folder-object that I want to have
a index_html method.

I tried to to styles:

   index_html=HTML('dtml_file',globals())

   dtml_file:
   <!--#var standard_html_header-->
   <!--#var "aq_parent.id"--> (<!--#var "aq_parent.id"-->)<br>
   <!--#var "aq_self.id"--> (<!--#var "aq_self.id"-->)<br>
   <!--#var "aq_base.id"--> (<!--#var "aq_base.id"-->)<br>
   <!--#var standard_html_footer-->

and 

        def index_html(self,REQUEST=None):
                """render Template
                """
                return '''<html><body>
                        self.aq_parent: "%s (%s)",<br>                 
                        self.aq_self: "%s (%s)",<br> 
                        self.aq_base: "%s (%s)",<br>
                        </body></html>'''% ( 
                            self.aq_parent.title, 
                            self.aq_parent.id, 
                            self.aq_self.title, 
                            self.aq_self.id, 
                            self.aq_base.title,
                            self.aq_base.id, )

When accessing from a subobject (i.e. aquiring index_html)
I get the following differens:

DTML method(http://localhost:9673/dddd/swedish/):

dddd (dddd)
swedish (swedish)
swedish (swedish)

Python method (http://localhost:9673/dddd/swedish/):

self.aq_parent: "Zope ()",
self.aq_self: "dddd (dddd)",
self.aq_base: "dddd (dddd)",

'dddd' is the folder containing the methods.
'swedish' doesn't is a folder not containing any
index_html.

Why does this happend? And where can I find docs or code
that would help me understand what going on here?

Best Regards,
Johan Carlsson
