I'm building an application dealing with multiple Departments, each with multiple members. Here's a short diagram of the folders in question Department (department level information and forms) +--Members (department Roster) +--Individual (individual level information and forms) +--Status (tracks status information and history) The Members index_html (dtml_method) displays all of the active members (stored in a mySQL database), displaying each member as a link as follows ("Get" is a Z_SQLMethod) <ul> <dtml-in Get> <li><a href = "myserver/Individual?member_number=&dtml-member_number;>&dtml-name;</a> </dtml-in> </ul> This calls the Individual/index_html (a dtml_method), passing it member_number as expected. The Individual folder has a link allowing the user to add a status value for the individual <a href="myserver/Memebrs/Individual/Status/AddForm/memno=&dtml-memno;;">Add Status</a><br> This calls a dtml_document which renders a form to add a status for the individual. This form calls Status/Add (a dtml method) which in turn calls AddSQL (an Z_SQLMethod) to post the data to the database. <dtml-var my_header> <dtml-call "AddSQL()"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('Status')> <dtml-call my_footer> This post the data to my Status table, but fails on th redirect. The problem I'm encountring is the redirect fails because the Status/index_html cannot find member_number. I thought that member_number would be in the Individual namespace, but it's nowhere to be found. Since the Individual folder will eventually have a lot of sub-folders (Addresses, Phones, Equipment, etc.) I would really like to use Acquisition rather than passing member_number explicitly. I've re-read the sections in "The Zope Bible" (pp 72+), "Web Application Construction Kit" (pp 82+), and "The Zope Book" (multiple places), but I guess I just don't get it. How and Where do I set the member_number so that all of the sub-folders can "see" (acquire) it? Thanks for your time and help. Greg Lindstrom Vilonia, Arkansas
