[PHPTAL] tal:attributes and php:

[Wallace McGee]

Hi ppl, my first post on the mailing list.

Its always useful setting attributes with tal:attribute but I have yet 
to work out how to include a semi-colon in the attribute value (useful 
for setting onclick javascript code etc..)

<span tal:attributes = " class php:'message'; my_element php:'green' " 
 >This works</span>

<span tal:attributes = " class php:'message'; my_element 
php:'green;black' " >This does not work</span>

I have tried escaping the ; in the string but that broke phptal.

I tried doubling the ; and I ended up with my_element="green;;black"

Any suggestions?

The same goes for how to get double quotes in to a string (again for 
adding javascript):

<span tal:attributes = " class php:'message'; my_element 
php:'green="black"' " >This does not work</span>
