[Zope] Help with String conversion in Zope

[enrica dente]

Dear all,

I have a problem checking if an input from a form is a string or not and 
then change it into a float. The Zope code I have written is as follows but 
it does not work.

<dtml-if expr="same_type(standardkit_cost, 'Test')">
   <dtml-call "REQUEST.set ('standardkit_cost', _.float(standardkit_cost))">

</dtml-if>


Thanks,
Enrica
