[Zope] Form-Through-Script

[tonylabarbara at aol.com]

Well it didn't like that, either:



Invalid request
The parameter, doc, was omitted from the request.

again. But look here:

<td tal:define="docs here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff">

<form action="renumberTheCart(docs)" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p metal:use-macro="here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff/macros/main" />

See, I have a definition of "docs", but it's not pointing to a "use-macro" widget. Must be the problem, but how do I do that?
TIA,
Tony

I think you want:




<form action="renumberTheCart(here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff)" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<td>

<form action=http://example.com/s/renumberTheCart" method="post">

<input type="hidden" name="doc" value="" tal:attributes="value here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff" />?

<p metal:use-macro="here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff/macros/main" />?

</td>




(my tal may be a bit off)

No, it should work the way it is...that is a URL I passed. I changed it to an absolute URL just to double-check, and got basically the same error:

How do I pass the parameter, which in my case is quite long and stashed neatly away in a PT macro?

<td tal:define="docs here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff">
<form action=http://example.com/s/renumberTheCart?doc=docs" method="post">?
<p metal:use-macro="here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff/macros/main" />?
</td>

TIA,
Tony

You might check out the basics about HTML forms first. The 'action' parameter is an URL and *not* some Python-like function call. You specify the destination URL inside the action attribute and pass the parameters as *hidden* form parameters to the URL - either using method GET or POST.?

You'll find more on forms in any HTML tutorial. Start from here:?
