I'd really appreciate it if one of the Zope gurus out there could solve this little question. It is really a simplification of the problem I am encountering. I have three DTML documents, index, two, and three What do I have to do to allow three to see the "gest"? They are all in a folder called persistence under the root directory of zope. three, when it is reached gives a key error. index................................. <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2><dtml-var title_or_id></h2> <p> <form action="two" method="GET" target="_self" id="SPU CalculatorID" title="SPU Entry"> <b>Number </b> <input type="TEXT" NAME="gest:float" SIZE="5" maxlength="6" value="100"> <div align="RIGHT"> <input type="submit" value="Submit Data"> </div> </form> This is <dtml-var id> </p> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> two....................................................... <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2><dtml-var title_or_id></h2> <p> This is the <dtml-var id> Document. <dtml-var gest> </p> <div align="center"> <A HREF="three">Continue</A> </div> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> three....................................................... <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2><dtml-var title_or_id></h2> <p> This is <dtml-var id> <dtml-var gest> </p> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> I would really appreciate your help with this. I have been poring over the zope book, and now wonder if there is something wrong with my installation of zope. I have tried using request and session, all sorts of things. thanks, Matt Redding ********************************DISCLAIMER**************************** The information contained in the above e-mail message or messages (which includes any attachments) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
