StaticString Mixin

T
his mixin implements the GetString method:

GetString(key, display=None, extra={}, title_fn=None)

If you want to use this as a control see StaticStringControl.

GetPSString(key,display,extra,title_fn) gets the static string keyed under "key" and then does a percent-substitution on the resulting string using display and extra. If title_fn is not None, then GetString searches the static string for a substring enclosed in <H1>...</H1> and calls the function title_fn, passing the substring as argument. Typically it is used to set the page title. Finally, if display is None, then it defaults to self, since the most common use is when it is used as a Mixin for the Display class.

If you want to create a page, which displays a bunch of staticstrings, then look up StaticStringDisplay.
