Look at your Python. It understands a dot as an attribute access. That's why Zope historically avoids dotted object names. Witness 'index_html'.

You may use dictionary lookup:

context['deltest.htm']()

or getattr.

But note that they're not semantically equivalent. getattr(foo, 'bar') might use acquisition to find 'bar'. foo['bar'] does not use acquisition, it only looks directly in foo. I don't like this difference, but, whatever. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
