Hello,

i searched the net for hours now, and tried tons of adjustments.
But i can't get this working!

Im using LocalFS 1.0.0 and want to get a randomly selcted image out of a 
folder.

My LocalFS object is called "Photos" and
in a ZTP i call  <img src="Photos/dummy.jpg" tal:replace="structure 
container/Photos/Schule/thumb/getRandom">

in the getRandom Python script i only have
return random.choice(context.fileValues('File'))

Btw: i tried the most current LocalFS from CVS, too
It "worked" even with the objectValues method. But the big problem is 
that its very very slow. It took *several minutes* to show a folder in 
ZMI with about 50 pictures (about 100 kB each) in it; during this the 
cpu load is eaten completeley by python threads.

Really thanks in advance,
Oli Keller
