I made the whole of the site in two days, but wasnt able to work out this particular problem for over another two days!. learnt a lot of dtml in an attempt to do so, but still hadnt solved it :/ once again, thanks Chris for the lifesaver. Also, special thanks to AdamK, who followed me up on IRC, and helped resolve it. now, only one more thing needs resolving... <g> ... when i do the following: manage_changeProperties(page_owner=AUTHENTICATED_USER) i get the error ------------- Error Type: ValueError Error Value: Invalid property value: wrapped object ------------- course, if i put ' ' around AUTHENTICATED_USER, it works but it then uses that literally, which is not what is needed. any ideas as to how i can insert the username into the property field? much appreciated, and once again, thanks in advance. -- best regards, tav _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
