<DIV>Because it's a bit ugly - my url will grow a lot, because I have to include the variable name. It's also really simple to make the product generate a PDF if the user know the ref_date and code, without playing with variable names.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Obviously if it's not possible I will generate a normal querystring, no problem at all, I'm just curious to know if it's possible to have urls like in ruby on rails :)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>TIA,</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why don't you identify the variable data portion of the urls you are building as standard http-type arguments:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>First of all thanks everyone for the help, I've resolved my problems one after the other thanks to the suggestions I've found here.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now I'm rewriting urls by substituting the href attribute with custom data, and everything works fine.</DIV>
<DIV>What I'd like is having an url like: myproduct/generate/20050301/PG2, and actually that's exactly what I've got. This url will make my app generate a pdf report for the ref_date 2005/03/01 and code PG2 (ref_date and code are internal data).</DIV>
<DIV>Zope obviously maps the url as an object, but that's not what I want: I want to parse the url and use the ref_date and code data inside a generate method.</DIV>
<DIV>Is it possible inside Zope without mod_rewriting and similar stuff ? I don't like querystring, the resulting url would be too long and difficult to paste.</DIV>
<DIV>I know that this is not the way Zope works ...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>TIA,</DIV>
