[Zope] Rendering PageTemplateFile

[Jens Dobberthin]

Salut,

is there any way to render a page template file that is located on the
hard disk?

Code excerpt in a product:

def foo(self):
   pt = PageTemplateFile('show.zpt', _prefix=skins_prefix)
   print pt	# prints <PageTemplateFile at 0x89c5000>
   return pt()  # --> error

There is nothing wrong with the page template (actually it doesn't contain
any tals just plain text). (The idea behind this is that I want to decide which
template to show. So the skins_prefix may change.)

But rendering will fail.

Thanks a lot,
Jens.
