Re: [Zope] dtml-if newbie question
possibly not the cleanest way of doing it, but this ought to do what you want.. select name="money:int" option value="1000"1000 option value="5000"5000 .. etc.. and dtml if "money == 1000" This is not much! dtml-elif "money == 5000" This is ok! dtml-elif .. etc.. /dtml-if -- Geir Bækholt web-developer/designer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.funcom.com on Thursday, November 09, 2000 Stephan Goeldi wrote : SG I want to select from a select menu, 3 amounts: 1000, 5000 or 1.

RE: [Zope] dtml-if newbie question
Hallo Stephan you can't iterate over a string!

Another thing you can do, not sure if Im using it right, but the effect is good... dtml-unless first_name dtml-raise type=ValidationError font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#00"bYou must specify a font color="red"First Name/b/font. /font dtml-var tableSeparate dtml-var SupportCallForm /dtml-raise /dtml-unless I have a support call form that is filed and submitted, and after the button is pressed, a seperate validate method is called (can be in any document) which will stop the processing if something isnt there and will show a red error text at the top of the form that still contains the information.] Its nice becuase the info stays there and doesnt take you off to a blank screen with a few words. -- Paz Oratrix Development BV http://www.oratrix.com GRiNS SMIL Editor - Stephan Goeldi wrote: I want to select from a select menu, 3 amounts: 1000, 5000 or 1.

Re: [Zope] dtml-if newbie question
HI! I want to select from a select menu, 3 amounts: 1000, 5000 or 1. After this, the form action method should reply: - "this is not much" if 1000 was selected, - "this is ok" if 5000 was selected, - "this is very much" if 1 was selected Now my form method looks like this: form action="form_action" How many money? select name="money" option1000 option5000 option1 /select input type="submit" value="checkit" /form and the form_action method is this: dtml-in money dtml-if "1000" This is not much! /dtml-if dtml-if "5000" This is ok! /dtml-if dtml-if "1" This is very much! /dtml-if /dtml-in I am sure that there is an error in my thinking of these tags. The dtml-in is not right. Use dtml-in if you want to iterate over lists. So in your case you should try: dtml-if "money=='1000'" This is not much! /dtml-if dtml-if "money=='5000'" This is ok! /dtml-if dtml-if "money=='1'" This is very much! /dtml-if (or use dtml-elif in this case) This now makes a string compare as usually form parameters will be passed as strings if you don't tell Zope to do it different. In order to e.g. let it pass integers, you might try in the form: select name="money:int" ... Then you can say dtml-if "money==1000", etc. More information about this "type casting" feature can be found at http://classic.zope.org:8080/Documentation/Reference/ORB cheers, Christian -- COM.lounge http://comlounge.net/ communication design [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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 )
Re: [Zope] dtml-if newbie question
Stephan Goeldi writes: ... select name="money" /select ... and the form_action method is this: dtml-in money "money" will come in as a string value not as a list. It would be a list, if you added a "multiple" to your "select". dtml-if "1000" This will always be true. It is constant (an expression without variable, having always the same value independent of context). What you mean is: dtml-if "money == '1000'" This will be true, if "money" has the value "'1000'" in the current context. Note the '...' around 1000! Without special Zope magic, request variables come in as string values. The '...' indicates a string literal. You want to look at the upcoming Zope book to learn more about the possible Zope magic.
