You will see this in the list archives several times in the past. Depending on the object, id is a method and not an simple attribute. To be on the save side (instead of figuring out what it is actually) always use: getId() Btw. does not use the id the same way like . Try and you will see the method signature (view document source in the browser) I'd recommend doing that all in a python script and then use the prepared data in your DTML - oder later ZPT. ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] dtml-if confusion
I believe you need the following ( the following is psuedo code): an initial dtml method that processes your form, let call it dtmlForm and it has a variable prod_req which says how much of the product is requested. In dtmlForm you of course must call some dtml method which we call dtmlVerify. In dtmlVerify you need to check: do a dtml-let xyz= "queryProduct" ... do a dtml-if "xyz <= prod_req" then ok else error. I think that's it. let me know if this helps. -Original Message- From: Kenny Flegal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, June 13, 2000 11:48 AM Subject: [Zope] dtml-if confusion >I have basically completed a management interface for one of our clients >using zope.

[Zope] dtml-if confusion
I have basically completed a management interface for one of our clients using zope. I have your standard product and order management. If a customer orders something that is out of stock I need to create a back order. I add an order in a query called addorder, in this I need to set up an if statement to make sure their is enough product in stock. I have a seperate query called onhand, this selects a product and returns instock a field containing the number in stock of a product. I need to pull instock from this query and subtract quantity they entered in the form and find out if the result is greater than or equal to zero. I have the insert statement and everything else I just can't figure out how to call instock from the onhand query and quantity from REQUEST (I think it is still in request even though i am in a ZSQL method) and then test if the result is greater than or equal to 0. If anyone could help me with this it would be greatly appreciated.
