[Zope] Returning an image and text from python script

[Ulla Theiss]

Hello Sven,

the rendering of a picture I solved in the following way:

Python-Product:
class ClassName(...):
   ....
   myPicture = None

   def changePicture(self, path):
        myPicture = ImageFile(path, globals())
        ....

dtml-code:
   <dtml-call expr="changePicture(path)">
   <img src="myPicture">

Because of the dependencies of the two steps, It's not really good code,
but the best I found for this problem until now.

Ulla.
