Hi, I hope you can help me! I have some problems with the combination of Archetype forms and python scripts.
I've copied the base_edit files to my new Archetypes-based product and modified base_edit.cpy.metadata:
[actions]
action.success=traverse_to:string:myScript
Now it calls the script when the user clicks on the save button. But it doesn't redirect the user to the "view" tab as it used to do without the script. I also tried it with the portal_form_controller tool:
a) Template/Script: base_edit, Status: success, Context type: newCT, Action type: traverse_to, Action argument: string:myScript
b) Template/Script: myScript, Status: success, Context type: newCT, Action type: traverse_to_action, Action argument: string:view.
I've tried this in various combinations - Either it redirects to the view tab and doesn't call the script, or it calls the script but doesn't redirect to the view tab. So where exactly am I wrong?
A second thing which doesn't work is calling a python script when the user initializes the new document. You know what I mean? The user adds a new document. At this moment the url of this object is
http://localhost:8080/FooFolder/portal_factory/Foo/foo.2008-11-29.7479322372/edit. The user saves it. Now the url is
http://localhost:8080/Foo/name_of_foo.
I just can't find out which template I have to modify in order to add a script while the object is still temporary.
Thanks!
