I created the python script and referenced it as below. What it displays
is just the more statement without the summary.

<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('mm',
ZopeTime().toZone('GMT+1').strftime('%d%m%y'))">
<dtml-in "Zcat_New1_Dtml_doc(mm=id)">
<dtml-if "mm==id">
<dtml-var summary>
<a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"> more </a>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-in>


Thanks for the support.
