[Zope] Non short-circuit or statement (listing multiple document categories)

[Tino Wildenhain]

Hi Frank,

you probably want

<dtml-in expr="objectValues(['STX_Document','Page Template','DTML 
Document'])" ...

objectValues() takes empty arguments, so it lists all meta-types,
a string, so it lists only the matching meta-type or a list of
meta-type strings, so it lists all matching objects.

(Unfortunately the meta-type system is somewhat brain-dead since
it does not support filtering on superclasses, but this is not
your problem here)

Regards
Tino
