[Zope] zpt and hrefs

[Pete Taylor]

Hi all,
Sorry for the newbie question, but I've scoured TFM for 2.6 and 2.7 (as much
of the new book as is there), and I can't figure out how exactly to do the
following.  basically i'm attempting to have an href link access a python
script with a particular set of parameters, have the python script call a
zsql method (the only way i've found to make zpt and zsql work together when
there are particular "WHERE" bits), and then return the relevant pieces back
out to another zpt using the "tal:replace="options/passed_params" construct.

i've tried using tal:attribute instead of href="" explicitly, but that
doesn't work any better.  it may just be that i'm approaching this the wrong
way, in which case i'd be glad to try it another way...

normal href...
<code>
<a href="somescript?identifier=4">link me</a>
</code>

but assume identifier is built dynamically, and is held in a zope
repeat/replace loop like...
<code>
<table tal:repeat="item sequence">
    <tr><td><a href="somescript?identifier=item/ret_val">link
me</a></td></tr>
</table>
</code>

obviously it doesn't work...  it tries to pass the literal string
"item/ret_val" to identifier.  but I would imagine there's got to be a way
to make that value dynamic.  it works in dtml, but i'd really rather use zpt
and python scripts if at all possible.  is there a better way to do this, or
am I just missing something obvious?  

Thanks!
