That didnt help, maybe explain what you are trying to do, rather than how you are doing it... -- Andy McKay Agmweb Consulting http://www.agmweb.ca ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Jacobs" <dan@caliginous.com> To: "Andy McKay" <andy@agmweb.ca> Cc: <zope@zope.org>; <yoz@yoz.com> Sent: Monday, August 19, 2002 2:49 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] aquiring objects upward in DTML
Andy,
I'm not explaining the problem properly...
we're iterating through a sequence of object names
so
aq_parent[ _.getitem('sequence-item')] but that only looks one level up. I tried aq_acquire( _.getitem('sequence-item')) and aq_parent.aq_acquire( _.getitem('sequence-item'))
Thanks,
Dan

Hi,
Is there an easy way within a DTML method to acquire a named object that may be anywhere upward.
At the moment I'm looking at the parent by doing aq_parent['name'] but that only looks one level up. I tried aq_acquire('name') and aq_parent.aq_acquire('name') but they don't work.
Thanks,
Dan
