If you use getMultiAdapter to get the view, all these differences are hidden and you can call the view to get its output. > > If this is a Viewlet or a ContentProvider, there is a render method that > > returns > > the output. (provided you first call the update method) Then it's not really a view, is it? ;-) > In fact it's a little bit more complicated... > What I have at first is a BrowserPage view, which is generally called > from a page template with "context/@@viewname" syntax, without any > problem. > > But I need also to be able to get the same view output from a JSON call, > so that I can update a little bit of HTML code dynamically.

You don't have to pass Interface explicitly, by the way, view = getMultiAdapter((context, request), name='...') will work as well. > I receive an error message : > > __init__() takes at least 3 arguments (1 given) I don't believe you :-) Can you show the full traceback? getMultiAdapter definitely passes the context tuple to the adapter's __init__. There must be some other piece of code that fails for you. > So zapi.getMultiAdapter creates the view, but how can I initialize it > with it's required parameters (context and request) ? getMultiAdapter does that.
