[Zope] Html2pdf problems

[Samir Mishra]

Can I use html2pdf in Win XP? I used the directions in the 'how-to' but get
an error when I try and generate the PDF. Something along the lines of
"Internet Explorer cannot open the site html2pdf" :(. 

I've tried it a number of different ways, including having the full path to
ghtmldoc in the Python External Method.

TIA.

Samir.

I've found a "solution" to the problem - I created another table in 
mysql and passed the variable to it using dtml-call, then used it as a 
filter in my select statement, it works, but if anyone has a more 
elegant way, I am only too happy to learn.
