[Zope] meta type conversion method, Document to Method... help!

Thu, 24 Feb 2000 12:15:12 +0900

Basically the idea is to have it go through and convert all dtml docs to
dtml methods.  BUT the problem is "index_html" of Document type also
have a attribute ".index_html" which is causing problems with the
conversion.  Thus my special case code.

Any ideas or tips would be appreciated.

This code is being used to convert all the old style docs to methods
for use with Zope2.

Thanks!
