[Zope] Automatically submitting forms

[Jim Sanford]

The "next form" (dtml document) should call the query using dtml-in. If there are results it spits out the appropriate html
otherwise it spits out html indicating an error.

<dtml-in "the_query()">
appropriate html
<dtml-else>
error html
</dtml-in>

Hi again,

I have a situation where I'd like to automatically "press" a submit
button.

I have a form that acts more like a sub-routine. It simply processes a
query, if the query is not successful, it displays and error message, if
the query is successful it puts some data in a list and then asks then
presents a "Continue" button. I'd really like to eliminate the use of
the continue button, but don't know how to get the results of my lists
to the next form without doing so.

I guess I would like to programmatically submit the form if user
intervention is not required.
