I was wonder how one should do an analog of supermethod calls for aquisition. For example I may want the index_html in some folder to wrap some information around the aquired index_html. I have come up with the incantation
+++++ index_html ++++ some added stuff <dtml-var "PARENTS[1].index_html(this(),REQUEST,RESPONSE)"> some more added stuff ++++++++++++++++++++++ There are two problems:
1. Usually, it is not easy to get a hold on the executing DTML method. You may be lucky in special cases, i.e. when it is "REQUEST.PUBLISHED". 2. When you can access the object "o", you can use "o.aq_inner.aq_parent" (this is the equivalent of "container(o)" to go up one step towards to root (you must go up twice!). Unfortunately, "aq_inner" is not exposed to DTML/Python Scripts (don't know why, its just the case). Therefore, you must use this in an External Method or other file system based code. Dieter
