Hello !! Recently the following problem arised, and my unability to solve it, made me feel desperate and unworthy to live. Okay, enough with exaggerating, here comes the problem: I have a list of strings (it's called tokens isn't it ?) which contains the names of some CollectorItems. The list is called 'collectorItems' Let's assume there's a CMF-Collector installd under '/Coll' containing about 300items. Now i have to acces a variable of the given Items in CollectorItems called status: i tried the following: <dtml-in collectorItems> <dtml-with "Coll"> <dtml-with sequence-item> <dtml-var status> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> it didn't work. i also tried: <dtml-in collectorItems> <dtml-with "Coll"> <dtml-var "_['sequence-item'].status"> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> again, it didn't work, so i tried (as my last rescue, even without really knowing what i tried to do): <dtml-in collectorItems> <dtml-with "Coll"> <dtml-with "_['sequence-item'].getObject()"> <dtml-var status> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> you guess it: again, IT DID NOT WORK !! hopefully, there is s.o. out there to help me, thanx in advance, Chris!
