The quick answer is Yes. One method is described by
http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/ZClientMethod. You can also use
XML-RPC.

On the other hand, Zope is an integrated programming environment for web
applications. It includes the capabilities offered by servlets within its
programming system; DTML methods, Script (Python), Script (Perl), SQL
Methods are all servlet-like functions. So you might ask yourself whether
you couldn't do better inside Zope what the servlets are doing for you
outside Zope.

Hi,

Forgive my lack of Zope knowledge I am fairly new to Zope.

Question:  From zope can I take a block of text returned by a web link ( say
some dhtml returned by a servlet ) and
include that in the source of a web page.  So I can build the sections of a
web page through successive calls to
Servlets ?

Cheers,

Brian.
