[Zope] Zope Newbie needs help with DTML

You cannot embed DTML inside a DTML expression, rather, just refer to the
varaible name as X, assuming it contains the right type of data to match
getRoles().  Sean

Hi all,

I couldn't get this code to work in Zope.  Can some one help me please?

#####################################################
<dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.getRoles() =='<dtml-var X>'">
Then execute code
<dtml-else> Permission Denied!
</dtml-if>
#####################################################

The .getRoles() method returns a string of more than one roles 
('Manager','Owner','*******').  Assume that <dtml-var X> = Owner ,how do i 
chop off the return of getRoles() to validate the above statement?

thanks,
