[Zope] Re: Defining a dictionary in ZPT?

[michael nt milne]

1) don't make spaces around = in HTML attributes:
        tal:define="query here/testquery"

a mistake

2) Why do you use repeat['result'] ? Can you point us to documentation
where did you read it ?
   tal:replace="result/firstname"  should work as expected or
   tal:replace="python:result[ 'firstname']" in case of result is
dictionary and you need to use python: for some reason.

http://wiki.zope.org/ZPT/RepeatVariable

requires repeat to be called. I used this as previously using
tal:replace="result/firstname produced a keyerror as I had no dictionaries
set up. The repeat variable sets-up a dictionary automatically...


3) what testquery returns ? I suppose it returns method, because you are
calling this method wit parameter 'id', but I don't think you meant it
in this way.

testquery returns a ZSQL query which works and is tested. The id variable is
totally meant as we are passing through a dynamic variable from a ZPT page
through to the ZSQL query. At the moment to simplify things! (required..)
this variable is fixed to 'IT'.

Thanks for your help
