I'm trying to have an object that returns different data based on if it's called from <dtml-var> or on its own, so I defined a __str__ function.

I need to pass REQUEST to __str__, but apparently __str__ doesn't get any parameters passed when it gets called. How do I correct this?

You can acquire REQUEST: def __str__(self): req = self.REQUEST before using the __str__ of your object, stuff what your looking for in REQUEST (it it's not allready in there). -Michel
