Class DtmlPage
source code
- Known Subclasses:
-
Base class for classes to generate web pages from DTML.
The 'DtmlPage' object is used as the variable context when generating
HTML from DTML. Attributes and methods are available as variables in
DTML expressions.
This base class contains common variables and functions that are
available when generating all DTML files.
To generate HTML from a DTML template, instantiate a 'DtmlPage'
object, passing the name of the DTML template file to the initializer
function (or create a subclass which does this automatically).
Additional named attributes specified in the initializer functions are
set as attributes of the 'DtmlPage' object, and thus available as
variables in DTML Python expressions.
To generate HTML from the template, use the '__call__' method, passing
a 'WebRequest' object representing the request in response to which the
HTML page is being generated. The request set as the 'request' attribute
of the 'DtmlPage' object. The 'WebRequest' object may be omitted, if the
generated HTML page is generic and requires no information specific to
the request or web session; in this case, an empty request object is
used.
This class also has an attribute, 'default_class', which is the
default 'DtmlPage' subclass to use when generating HTML. By default, it
is initialized to 'DtmlPage' itself, but applications may derive a
'DtmlPage' subclass and point 'default_class' to it to obtain customized
versions of standard pages.
