[Zope] Saving a Rendered DTML Document

[Asad Habib]

Hello. The PHP script that I use relies on a path to locate the HTML file 
on the file system and since the DTML document is a Zope object, it does 
not have access to that. I also tried using a Zope File object as well as 
a DTML document that is part of a Local File System. Using a Zope File 
object does not work since the ouput of a rendered DTML document is text 
and providing the PHP script a Zope File filled with plain text does not 
work. The same goes for a DTML document that is part of a Local File 
System, once the document is rendered it is plain text.
