You can use a python script or external method (or even a dtml method) to
access the form data and make the call to the zsql method. Here is an
example I have pulled from an external method:
rStat=self.Users.SQL_SearchUsers(UID=self.REQUEST['userId'])
if not rStat.dictionaries():
# no user account, log error, error return
SysEventsLogger(self, ....)
return (RFAIL, 0)
# here if we found some user record data, so build the return dictionary
dictList = rStat.dictionaries()
...
In the above example, 'userId' is a form field.
