[Zope] how can I dynamically bring in external page

[Pavlos Christoforou]

Hi Andy -

I am not usre what you by dynamic and not pasting. I suppose you need a
method to automatically retrieve an HTML page from a server. An external
method might be appropriate (untested):


import urllib
try:
  content=urllib.urlopen(URL) 
except:
  return "Not available"

return content


URL can be acquired or passed as an argument to your external method ...

Regards

Pavlos
