[ZPT] Repeat over dict with options

[David Pratt]

Hi Chris:

This is what I am using for the output that will work fine in the short 
term ( I'll likely use divs in the end as opposed going with a table)   
  I will only be returning the dictionary from the script if there are 
results, otherwise script will return a message indicating no records 
found.  Thanks Chris :)

Regards,
Dave

     <tal:x repeat="key options/results/keys">
     <table tal:define="value options/results;
                                      v python:value[key]">
        <tr>
           <td><strong>Foo:</strong></td>
           <td tal:content="v/foo">
           value of foo
           </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
           <td><strong>Foo2:</strong></td>
           <td tal:content="v/foo2">
           value of foo2
           </td>
        </tr>
     </table>
     <br/>
     </tal:x>
