[Zope] Adding an ExtFile from a web page

[Arno Gross]

I used only ExtImage with the following snippet:


          <dtml-let ret="manage_addProduct['ExtFile'].manage_addExtImage(title=_['PICTURE.TITLE'],
                                                               descr=_['PICTURE.DESCR'],
                                                               file=_['PICTURE.FILE'],
                                                               content_type='',
                                                               create_prev=create_prev,
                                                               maxx=maxx,
                                                               maxy=maxy,
                                                               ratio=ratio,
                                                               permission_check=permission_check,
                                                               REQUEST=REQUEST)">
                                                               
For adding an ExtFile object you have to use:

manage_addExtFile(self, id='', title='', descr='', file='', content_type='', permission_check=0, REQUEST=None)
