Is the magic behaviour of boolean HTML attributes documented somewhere
apart from the source ?
For the record, you can write::
<input type="checkbox" name="foo" tal:attributes="checked mybool">
and depending if mybool is true or false, you'll get one of::
<input type="checkbox" name="foo" checked="checked">
<input type="checkbox" name="foo">
which is actually very very handy.
This works in HTML mode only, and for the following attributes::
"compact", "nowrap", "ismap", "declare", "noshade", "checked",
"disabled", "readonly", "multiple", "selected", "noresize",
"defer"
Actually http://www.zopelabs.com/cookbook/1007765719 and
http://www.zopelabs.com/cookbook/996076015 stumbled on it but methinks
it needs documenting in help/tales-attributes.stx
HTH,
Florent
