History for PathNameTraversal
??changed:
-
Path traversal in DTML names Proposal
Poster child: <dtml-var thing/over/here html_quote>
Goals
o Allow simple reference to names which are more than one
containment/acquisition step away.
Proposed Changes
Modify (at least) the Var, Call, and In tags, and probably &dtml-;
notation, so that when the name they are operating on looks like
'a/b/c', it is treated a path with elements 'a',
'b', and 'c' using non-REQUEST traversal.
See InterfacesWiki:Traversal for more details and discussion.
Result
Less need for DTML-With and expressions, more expressiveness.
