No amount of aquisition trickery will give a method access to the dtml context, which I *think* is what was asked for.....
the only thing i found was this: http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd/howto/FunctionTemplate but it seems very complicated in argument passing
Like DTMLMethods, all arguments get passed in the 'context'.
am i the only one who needs this, or is it a sign for wrong coding practice in zope?
Context-based programming is usually wrong, but not always. If you explain what you are trying to achieve then we may be able to point out a better alternative. (some early drafts of the Zope book encouraged context-based programing in scenarious where it was quite dangerous; Im not sure if this is currently true) Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
