[Zope] Help with tree tag and localfs

Oh, that's OK, I appreciate the input.  Besides I learned more by trying =
your exammples.

I did figure out my problem today, though.  Under the LocalFS object's =
properties, I had to select 'Catalog' to make it work.  Once I did that, =
the dtml-tree worked fine.

<dtml-tree zinesfolder branches=3D"objectValues" sort=3D"meta_type">
  <img src=3D"<dtml-var icon>">=20
  <a href=3D"/zinesfolder/<dtml-var tree-item-url>"><dtml-var id></a>
</dtml-tree>

If I used this:  branches_expr=3D"objectIds()"
it didn't work.  (as in nothing displayed, but I didn't get any errors.)

I noticed that the LocalFS objects don't have the same properties(like =
title) as they do in Zope.  I should expect that since they aren't =
actually "Zope" objects, rather LocalFS objects.

Now I just need to figure out how to get better icons to display, but =
that's not urgent.  Thanks for your help!

Greg

I am sorry, I probably didnt explain my setup properly. The functions=20
that I use are for my use only. You dont necessarily need to use them to =

do what you want.

The minimal thing yoou can do is the following:

<dtml-let root=3D"zinesfolder">
  <dtml-tree name=3Droot branches_expr=3D"objectIds()" nowrap single>
    <dtml-var id>
  </dtml-tree>
</dtml-let>

This will display your tree (with all the members in there).

If you do the following:

<dtml-let root=3D"zinesfolder">
  <dtml-tree name=3Droot nowrap single>
    <dtml-var getId>
  </dtml-tree>
</dtml-let>

This wil show all the folders int your LocalFS instance.

If you want more functionality please provide some more specs and mebb I =
can help
