Haven't tried it in my code yet, but thanks to your post I found the
section about _.getitem().  That'll come in handy all over the place,
so many thanks for the pointer!

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. But I believe you

Hmmm...  OK.  Here is my relevant code, complete with resulting error message:



  
  
  etc...
 
  

  

  

  



And Zope sez:

  Error Type: KeyError
  Error Value: short_desc

attribute1, attribute2 and attribute3 are all attributes of
sidebar_item.  If I change the  to read 
 (where weepee_the_weewee is the actual
name of the object I'm trying to refer to), then  I see the short_desc
attribute of weepee_the_weewee perfectly.

Don't I have to do something in my syntax to indicate that I'm looking
for the the value of attribute3 rather than an object with the literal
id "attribute3"?

It seems (though it is not clear) that you want a
computed attribute access?

   Your "objectName2" is an attribute of "objectName1"
   and contains the "id" of an object in "folder.subfolder"?

Then, you use "_.getattr". That's for accessing an attribute
you have the name for (and the name is not constant).

In your case, you would use it as:

[Zope] dtml-with syntax question

2000-10-11 Thread Geoffrey L. Wright

So here's a question from a fairly new Zope developer:

I think I am finally getting a decent handle on namespace issues in
Zope, and I can now with the dtml-with tag with reasonable efficacy in
simple situations. But I have run into something of a brick wall on
one issue.

What I would like to be able to do is something like this:






   



Where objectName2 is actually an attribute of objectName1.


I figure I _should_ be able to do this, and I'm sure I'm missing
something obvious.  But I spent about a half hour scanning the
Zope.org site and the list archives and can't find an obvious example
of this.

Any thoughts, hints or HOWTOs?



Thanks!
