[Zope] Variable name use in with statement
I'm working on a simple auction site as a newbe challenge. I am taking bids
on three static items, none will be added or removed. I have a folder named
bid_records in which there is a folder for each item. These item folders
have current bid information in properties and bid history in ZClass items
stored in them.
When I'm working with a specific auction item I have the name of the folder
in a REQUEST variable. I am finding myself doing the following and am sure
there is a simpler way to do this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
dtml-with bid_records
dtml-if "_.str(REQUEST.form['selection']) == 'walkon'"
dtml-with walkon
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
dtml-elif "_.str(REQUEST.form['selection']) == 'fullhouse'"
dtml-with fullhouse
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
dtml-else
dtml-with snoopy
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
/dtml-if
/dtml-with

[Zope] RE: Variable name use in with statement
Ok, this worked :
dtml-with bid_records
dtml-with "_.getitem(_['selection'])"
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
/dtml-with
Thanks for the direction, Jerry!

Scott Butchill wonders if:
"there is a simpler way to do this."
Not much simpler, but how about:
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_select', ['walkon', 'fullhouse'])"
dtml-with bid_records
dtml-in user_select
dtml-if "_.str(REQUEST.form['selection']) == _['sequence-item']"
dtml-with "_['sequence-item']"
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
dtml-elif "_['sequence-index'] == -1
dtml-with snoopy
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cur_bidder', bidder)"
/dtml-with
/dtml-if
/dtml-in
/dtml-with
