Re: [Zope] Re: Zope ZMI Templates
Hi again, Tres! Can you point as where we can find this kind of help? Are there some reference manual or similar? (I'm using Zope2) Perhaps on Five manual?

I'm afraid I don't know the docs very well: I tend to use the source when memory fails me. ;) Honestly, I typed those examples in off the top of my head, and then created the product to test them: except for a single typo, it Just Worked (TM).
