RE: [Zope] Including a method returning batches inside a page.
hi Dieter For a DTML method(!), "id" is the id of the object of which the method is used as a method. In your case, this is the folder. No, actually -- since 'index_html' is a document, it turns out to be the id of 'index_html'. In some cases, you would use "this().id". OK, I'll try and understand that .. -- jean ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
[Zope] Including a method returning batches inside a page.
Hi all
In my 'index_html', I have::
dtml-var docsByTitle
This is supposed to return batches of documents, similarly to
http://www.zope.org/Products/ [1]. It works halfway, but the links
to previous and next batches of course refer to 'docsByTitle'
and not to 'index_html'::
a href="dtml-var document_iddtml-var sequence-queryqs=dtml-var
next-sequence-start-number"
I could include the looping code in 'index_html' (like [1] does),
but that isn't pretty -- and besides, I'd like to be able to choose
between 'docsByTitle', 'docsByOrigin', 'docsBySeries', etc. Is the
best way to do this to carry the relevant variable ('sequence-query',
'next-sequence-start-number' back and forth between 'index_html'
and 'docsByTitle' in the REQUEST? How would you tackle this?

Re: [Zope] Including a method returning batches inside a page.
Is docsByTitle a DTML Document?
If so then try making it a DTML Method.
It seems to be taking the properties from itself rather than it's container,
if yu see what I mean.

RE: [Zope] Including a method returning batches inside a page.
Hi Phil Is docsByTitle a DTML Document? It's a Method alright -- cutting straight off the screen:: DTML Method at /docs / docsByTitle and 'index_html' is:: DTML Document at /docs / index_html a href="dtml-var document_iddtml-var sequence-queryqs=dtml-var next-sequence-start-number" Hmm, it sounds like you expected 'document_id' to refer to 'index_html' instead of to 'docsByTitle'. That sets me thinking. Hmm! It works exactly that way if you replace 'document_id' with 'id'! Does this break anything?:: a href="dtml-var iddtml-var sequence-queryqs=dtml-var next-sequence-start-number" Thanks! -- Jean Jordaan --technical writer-- Mosaic Software--Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

This gives you the id of the "top level" DTML object. In your case, this would be "index_html".
