Using this documentation :)
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-random.html
Write a simple python script to pick the random number. Return it as a
string.
<dtml-var "_[your_python_script()]">
the key point is the use of _['an_object_id']
To call python functions from within a document:
<dtml-var expr="python_script(attr1, attr2, ...)">

Subject: [Zope] How to call functions in DTML?
Simple question from a stupid newbie.
I'm used to writing inline code using PHP and I just want a random
number to appear on a web page.
Once I clear that hurdle, I want to use that number to reference
different images (objects, right).
Then I'll have a web page that displays random images from my image library.
How do I call Python functions from within a web (aka DTML Document?)
page in Zope?
If you tell me to read the documentation I'll strangle you. :-) It's
lacking.
Thanks in advance,
-Patrick Price
