The very reason I chose to do it with DTML Documents was to be able to store some special fields, such as 'author' in my example, along with the document. I cannot do that with DTML Methods, as they do not have properties.
In Zope 1.0.9 I used folders but I was running into problems with relative links. It seemed natural to switch from my previous folders to the new DTML Documents.
You are right. I was using folders too for the same reason.
I still do not know to reference the properties of a DTML Document 'A' from within a document or method 'B' in located in the same folder as 'A'.
You can use the PARENTS variable. so if you have a folder which contains two DTML Documents A and B then you can access B's properties from A by: <!--# var "PARENTS[0].B.name"--> PARENTS[1] will return the folder or containing object one level up and PARENTS[-1] will return the top most Folder.
