[Zope] I _still_ need help on ZClasses and manage_clone

[Heiko Stoermer]

Marco,

still I don't see why you would use an external method for the functions
below.
When I started zoping, I did far too much  in external methods because I
didn't know that DTML does it too.
My proposal: get my ListMate product and have a look at it. It does a
lot with manage_upload and the like.
It actually has _one_ external method, but all the rest is done in DTML
only.
Maybe this helps, because I think you have a structural problem in your
product.

greetings,
Heiko
