if you're submitting from a form, you can coerce strings into other data
types by giving the form items special names, e.g.:
<input type=text name=foo:int>
<input type=text name=bar:float>
Your REQUEST then has variables called foo and bar which are ints and
floats, respectively.
also, don't post html mail - not everyone can read it.

Subject: [Zope] int and string comparisons
This is the snippet
<dtml-in "_.range(1,32,1)">
<option value="&dtml-sequence-item;"
<dtml-let item=sequence-item>
<dtml-if begin_day>
<dtml-if expr="item == REQUEST.begin_day"> selected </dtml-if>
<dtml-comment>CONVERTIR A INT</dtml-comment>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-let>
>&dtml-sequence-item;</option>
</dtml-in>
The comparison fails because item is an int and REQUEST.begin_day is a
string (i guess). How can I coerce item into a string, or REQUEST.begin_day
into an int?
I tried python's builtin int() function around REQUEST.begin_day. Won't
work.
Any suggestions?
