Subject: [Zope] adding value to the path
When I submit this:
<input name="branch/manage_editProperties:method" type="submit"
class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / >
It works very nicely.
I'd like the user to choose the page to amend so I have a select option to
choose the page (in this case the one named 'branch'
<select size="3" width="100" name="pageName">
<dtml-in "getParentNode().objectItems('DTML Document')" >
<dtml-if "id() != 'index_html'">
<dtml-if "id() != 'editProperties'">
<option value="<dtml-var id>"> <dtml-var title_or_id></option>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-in>
</select>
And I think this ought to work.. but it doesn't...
<input
name=document.propForm.pageName.value+"/manage_editProperties:method"
type="submit" class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / >
It does absolutely nothing.
How do I pass it the value to the input name?
You create a separate html input tag that gets the information you require
from the user, eg
Enter Id: <input type="text" name="id:UTF-8:string" size="30" value=""/>
If you already have some information that you want to pass along to the
receiving method (ie. this information does not come from user input) then
use a "hidden" input:
<input type="text" name="id:UTF-8:string" size="30" value="<dtml-var
someIdvar>"/>
P.S. i just couldn't let this go:
<dtml-if "id() != 'index_html'">
<dtml-if "id() != 'editProperties'">
<option value="<dtml-var id>"> <dtml-var title_or_id></option>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-if>
is simpler as:
<dtml-if "id() != 'editProperties' and id() !=index_html">
<option value="<dtml-var id>"> <dtml-var title_or_id></option>
</dtml-if>
