I have a dtml-documentish zclass and have created a custom edit method
for
it so that I can do an automatic reindex when each instance is edited.
I
created this custom form by simply copying the source html that is
generated
for the standard edit form, and then replacing the static parts of what
I
copied with various dtml-var inserts (see below). This seemed to go
according to plan until I realised that something strange is happening
when
I try to view this edit form for an instance of the zclass. In most
cases,
everything seems normal, but when I try to edit an instance that has a
property set to 'private', my 'privacy' method kicks in and redirects
me
away from the edit form to my standard 'Restricted Page'. The
redirection
is written into the text of the instance I am trying to edit, so I
expected
that by using dtml-var document_src, the actual source would get
placed in
the text area without being processed. This is what appears to happen
when
the instance does not have the 'private' property. I guess therefore,
my
question is, am I using document_src correctly?
Is is possible that your edit form is called
in the context of you ZInstance?
I'm not sure I completely understand the terminology you use, but I guess it
sounds right that the edit form method is called 'on' (in my terminology
;-) ) the Zclass instance. It is in that way that the dtml-var
id/title/get_size/etc retrieve the attributes of the instance and not the
method itself... is that correct? Is that what you mean?
Then, it might be able that *it* interpretes the "private"
and redirects before "document_src" is executed at all.
Each Zclass instance has dtml-call privacydtml-if "available* ==
1"dtml-call RESPONSE.redirect(restricted)dtml-elseblah/dtml-if . (*
set by the privacy method). Thanks for your help with that btw :-).
However, the edit form method does not have this code in it. As far as I
can gather, the only time the method gets to 'see' the code shown above is
when it inserts dtml-var document_src.
What am I missing?
