Hi,
I have a form which when submitted calls a python scripts. The python
scripts in turn calls a ZSQLMethod which enters data into a MySQL
data. When the python script has done the data entry, either
succesfully or not I would like it to point to a DTML method which
will report on the action to the user.
What is the best way to do this:
1. Form -> DTML Method x -> ZSQL Method -> DTML Method x
How do I return a success or failure flag from the ZSQLMethod to DTML
Method x? Does the ZSQL Method return anything once it has done it's
operation?
2. Form -> PythonScript y -> ZSQL Method -> PythonScript y ->DTML Method x
This option is neater (Python v DTML) for the kind of SQL I'm doing
but I don't know how to return a success or failure flag to the final
DTML method to report to the user.
I don't want to send the form directly to the ZSQL because I need to
perform some action on the form fields.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Sion
