[Zope] searching a ZCatalog

[Catonano]

Chris,

thanks so much! I just did it like you suggested to do and it works !

Thanks!

The only thing is that the replace(searchTerm, replacedString) method 
is case sensitive.

I mean that 'LONGSTRING'.replace('long', 'simlpe') fails, leaving 
LONGSTRING untouched.

At now, I converted evrything with 'LONGSTRING'.replace('long'.upper(), 
'simple.upper()')

and that works but I don't like it so much since it requires all my 
longstrings to be uppercase, wich they are, but it's just an incident. 
The day I run into a lowercase longstring I don't know how to handle it.
 
Can I make it case insensitive? I didn't find it in the Zope help

Thank you so much anyhow ;-)

Bye
Catonano
