I'm confused. You said you only were concerned about the _current_ directory's subdirectories not having sub-directories, right? IOW You have: ROOT FolderA -FolderA1 -FolderA2 /FolderA2A FolderB FolderC And in ROOT, you only want to see : FolderB FolderC And in FolderA: FolderA1 Right? If so, whether or not FolderA1 has subfolders is irrelevent in root. The code ethan posted will provide you with that. I have very similiar code for one of my nav-systems, opnly it is the opposite, I show folders (and various other objects) and their subfolders (and various other objects) only. I'm sure I can do it with ZopeFind, because Zope do it in the Find (Advanced) tab, but don't know the exact syntax of: """ obj_expr = "not objectValues(['Folder'])" """ (which doesn't work because of nested " and ') Actually I've put a dtml-if inside of my dtml-in loop, but it limits my possibilities, especially because my result length is overestimated (all folders vs only folders with no subfolders). Maybe I read it wrong, but I thought you said you wanted only folders with subfolders _in the current directory_. Maybe you need to rephrase your question?

[Zope] hard dtml syntax problem
Hi want to call ZopeFind to find all folders in the current folder which doesn't have got any subfolder. the following query works but returns all folders, even those which have got subfolders: dtml-let myresult="ZopeFind(this(), obj_metatypes=['Folder'], search_sub=1)" dtml-in myresult ... /dtml-in So I play a little with the Zope Search Interface and I find that if I type in "not objectValues(['Folder']" (without the double quotes) in the obj_expr (Expression) field then this solves my problem. my question is: How to rewrite my ZopeFind with obj_expr="not objectValues(['Folder'])" ? I've tried with or without quotes (single, double and even triple ones), but with no luck: I've always got a Document Template Parse Error. What is the correct syntax please ? Actually I've added a test inside my dtml-in loop but I think it's stupid because I need the exact result length and I don't want to rebuild a list of matching results since the Zope Search Interface can do it. thanks in advance for any answer.
