Hi Zope-dev,

I have a dtml method, "A", that calls another dtml method, "B". Now, B has some <dtml-var blah> calls in it. B works fine on its own, but when A calls B, for some reason B cannot see blah (a property set in the root folder). I see this behaviour a lot. Can anyone explain it?

I *think* it is a bug somewhere. I've noticed that if A & C were a Python Method such that: A calls B and B calls c and: class something: def A() def B() where B is a DTML Method A needs to call B like this: self.B(self, x, y, z) instead of: self.B(x, y, z) If you don't do this, properties listed *as strings only* are acccessable but other properties and functions called within B say: unauthorized access -- even as superuser. or Resource not found I don't know why stuffing self in twice works - it just does ;) Cheers, Anthony Pfrunder
