  that should be 'return res'

Don't understand what you want here...

FINALY, your code sould look like:


In externalMethod:
return res 
#ENTIRE obj 

DTML code:

this might sound like newbie question ( but i don't really know)

how i can  with input values like this


myinput is data that i can type like search criteria in my
search-form

RE: [Zope] Fetching data from external methods

sorry but your example did'nt work:

>in external method:

>   return (obj1, obj2,)
>
>in DTML:
>
>
>

here is my submit forms code to explain my case


   cn: 

   objectclass: 


  


LDAPsearch is my external method (object in zope which points to .py module)

My method outputs are:

res = (contains search result using forms input values)
sn = res.sn (one of the values in res-object)
return sn

and i try to embed in dtml like this






Zope returns error:
Error Type: InError
Error Value: Strings are not allowed as input to the in tag.

if i try to return 
res.__dict__   in external method

zope returns this kind of error:
Error Type: KeyError
Error Value: 0

this works

but it lefs me with two problems
1) how i can input values in LDAPsearch(how i input here)
2) i don't have any control of return value, it returns list like
this
('Ukko', '66', 'oEmail')

this solution worked, but it's not what i really want to do. I don't want
include return HTML-file in my python script, like in that example.

in external method:

return (obj1, obj2,)

in DTML:


  
  


If you are submitting to your external method from an HTML form, you
will need to return the HTML to be displayed:

def my_external_method(self,param1,param2):
...do stuff...
string = ''
string = string + ...render your results here...
string = string + ''
return string

HTH,
