Re: [Zope] SOAPMethod
Hi Tom
to be honest i would much rather use DTML as i understand this but it doesn't
seem to work it only returns the result of the SOAP query when i view the
source code. The SOAPMethod product recommends DTML but I have followed the
example they give and this is what is happening.

Hi Mark,
There's nothing wrong with using DTML instead of TAL. each have their
drawbacks and benefits and it really comes down to user choice and job
requirements. People on this list though will always recommend TAL
because they are mostly developers who use WYSIWYG html editors. If you
hand code your design markup dtml can be much cleaner, require less code
and avoid annoying problems with javascript.

you better do not use dtml but tal (aka page templates). to learn about
it go to the zope site and look up the zope book (take the one on
plope.org)
it would look something like:
html
head
title tal:content=template/titleThe title/title

If I understand correctly, you are saying that the requestStudentData method
is returning the correct information, but that information is not displaying
in your web browser, and that you can only see the information returned by
requestStudentData if you view the source for the page.
If this is the case, then it sounds like an html/css display problem, not a
dtml problem. To verify this, create a dtml method that contains:
html
headtitleTesting/title/head
body
dtml-var requestStudentData('5506239')
/body
/html
If the information displays correctly when you click on the View tab for the
above dtml method then you know that you have an html/css problem in your
original dtml method. If you don't see the correct information, then your
'requestStudentData' method is not functioning correctly.

Re: [Zope] SOAPMethod
See Johnathan's comment. It sounds like an html/css issue. If it
renders in the source its working.
