Hi there,

first excuse me, if this idea looks stupid just delete this message:

what about adding a new dtml tag called dtml-python useable this way:

<dtml-python mypythonmodule>

  def myfunc(param) :
	return param * 3

  def anotherfunc(p1, p2)
	return str(myfunc(p1)) + ' ' + str(myfunc(p2))
 
</dtml-python>

<dtml-var mypythonmodule.anotherfunc(3,9)>

this would allow to embed python code in dtml files without having to
create external methods. 

I really don't know if this could be useful (I've not used external
methods for now) or if it is feasible, I'm simply surprised that
this sort of tag doesn't seem to exist.

bye,
