hi daviz...sorry for my ignorance but can you tell me what I should write
instead of here.has_permission and instead of ( 'View',here) ??
<tal:define="ViewPerms python: here.has_permission('View', here)">
I'm sorry but I had never seen that before so I'm in trouble
I hope you can help me.
thank you very much
