[Zope] Need help with date comparisons

2000-10-16 Thread Jonathan Cheyne

Hi all again.

I have a blank in my mind where I hoped the answer might be to this
probably straightforward exercise.

I have a zclass containing a date property called event_date.

I want a page that loops through the months of the year, starting with
the current month, and in each loop displays all the instances from the
catalog with an event_date within the month in question.

I just get stuck, completely stuck, trying to get the month value from
the event_date and to compare it with the current month value.

Anyone done this or something like this? Is this hard or am I a bit, you
know, dense?

thanks

Jonathan

Jonathan:

You can try:

dtml-in "['January', 'February', 'March', 'April',
   'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September',
   'October', 'November', 'December']"
 dtml-if "event_date.Month() == _['sequence-item']"
  dtml-var event_date
 /dtml-if
/dtml-in

The source for DateTime() is pretty easy to follow.  You can look for you
format's there.

All my best,
