So, one might conclude that the _ variables are not persistent, or are too persistent, depending on how you look at it.
This is the correct conclusion. If you want to store info like this in the ZODB, you need to make a property. (Folders, ZClasses and DTML Documents can all have properties). Let's say you wanted to count how many people access a given Folder. You could add a property (count) to that Folder, and then put the following in your standard_html_header: <dtml-call "manage_changeProperties({'count': count+1})"> Note: this creates a new transaction for every page view on the Folder, and your Data.fs will grow. (Not by much, but it will grow) There are a couple counter products up on zope.org, I think, that may give you some tips. HTH, Kevin
