Florian If it's good to use metadata: How can I directly use metadata from ZPTs? Through the 'zope' TALES namespace, e.g. obj/zope:description. Not all DublinCore metadata is available through that, though. See zope.tales.interfaces.ITALESFunctionNamespace for a list of available names.

It's more like an extension, which is what adapters are for. -D -- There is not a righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins.
