Another approach is to create a folder in the root named "global", and then call methods, properties with "<dtml-var "global.prop"> or <dtml-var "global['prop']">. If you need organization, i think that it is what you need... Jonothan Farr wrote:
I'm looking for advice on implementing site-wide (global) variables in Zope. That is, I want certain variables to be accessible to every folder, ZClass, method and document in the ZODB. Should I simply add these properties to the root folder and then make use of aquisition or is there a more elegant approach (say a globals singleton object that lives in the root)?
I believe that acquired properties of the root folder -is- the elegant solution.
