Hmm. That should have worked. You could try manage_changeProperties(eggs='blue') as an alternative, but the dictionary way should have worked. Maybe, "manage_changeProperties" is called on the wrong object, i.e. one that does not have an "eggs" property.

Try: <dtml-call "PARENTS[0].manage_changeProperties({'eggs': 'blue'})"> to call it on the folder. Dieter
