If you have written it exactly like that, it should work. You have no
folders inside the folder you are running it in then.

I assume you have not written your code that way, but rather:

objectValues(['Folder','File'])

That's my problem. I followed the instructions of the Zope Book example
exactly and created 3 folders in the folder I use the
objectValues()-method on.

In another example I have the folder "photos" with 3 jpg-files in it.
When I call "photos.objectValues()" I get a list with the 3 files, if I
use "photos.objectValues('File')" I get nothing...
The objectValues-method seems not working when I specify it on a type.

Correct, I did write either objectValues('Folder') or
objectValues('File') in my code.

hmmm ... it is not a zope problem. objectValues() works!

try

<ul>
<dtml-in objectValues>
<li>&dtml-meta_type;</li>
</dtml-in>
</ul>


That should give a hint.

The problem seems to be somewhere else:

I used the objectValues('Folder')-method in a DTML-method named
'navigation'. I include <dtml-var navigation> in a
'standard_html_header' DTML method, and this standard_html_header is
used in the index_html document.
All three are in the same folder which contains 3 Subfolders. If I view
'navigation' or 'standard_html_header' in the management area, I see the
3 folders, but in the index_html they don't appear. Everything else in
the standard_html_header, like stylesheets etc. are correctly shown so
I'm sure that the correct standard_html_header is included.

Navigation may be used for something else.


Does it work if you render only the navigation method?

Also, you will find it much easier to find replies to Zope questions on
the zope mailing list.

Yes, that's what confuses me. The navigation works completely if I call
it with http://localhost:8080/ZopeZoo/navigation, also the
standard_html_header does. But when I include it in the index_html, the
list of folders vanishes, the rest of navigation works.

thanx for the hint, I'll try it.

Is index_html a DTML_Document, maybe?

In that case, I think objectValues() would look in the index_html for
its objects, instead of the containing folder.

Try creating a new DTML_Method and putting your code in there.
