the script calls a DTML method in the same folder from which it resides & was called from

When calling a DTML method from Python, you need to pass in the arguments it expects: def __call__(self, client=None, REQUEST={}, RESPONSE=None, **kw): While the declaration makes the arguments optional, the template won't be able to bind names unless you pass them. In your case, I would try: dtml = container.your_template_name_here req = context.REQUEST return dtml( container, req, req['RESPONSE'] ) Tres. -- =============================================================== Tres Seaver tseaver@zope.com Zope Corporation "Zope Dealers" http://www.zope.com
