hi all, i have posted this question a while back, but got no replies. maybe imy question is a bit off or unclear. so here it is again. rephrased. i have 2 sql methods. sql1, and sql2. sql 2 got the parameter for it's query from sql1. as follows: -- <dtml-in "sql1"> <dtml-in "sql2(obj=myobj)"> do stuff </dtml-in> </dtml-in> -- sql1 is just a query that returns myobj that will be used by sql2. this used to work on 2.1.6 but not anymore on 2.2 i guess tmyobj is not in the namespace. even tried passing _.None, _,obj=myobj but resulted the same error. the traceback raceback (innermost last): File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: index_html) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: index_html) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/DTMLMethod.py, line 168, in __call__ (Object: index_html) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 500, in __call__ (Object: index_html) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py, line 611, in renderwb (Object: qry_msgs_by_par_id(par_id=0)) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/DTMLMethod.py, line 164, in __call__ (Object: show_subtree_index) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 500, in __call__ (Object: show_subtree_index) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py, line 633, in renderwob (Object: qry_msg_thread(par_id=obj_id)) File /home/kdie/Zope-2.2.0b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_Util.py, line 339, in eval (Object: qry_msg_thread(par_id=obj_id)) (Info: qry_msg_thread) File <string>, line 0, in ?
