Re: [Zope] Accesing a new context from a manipulated string

Here's my problem:

given a method itemURL(), that typically returns a site relative URL such as '/about/', I need to change to the appropriate directories context using <dtml-with>.

In short I need to do the equivalent of <dtml-with about>. You may try <dtml-with "REQUEST.resolve_url(SCRIPT_NAME + itemURL)">

This whole area is a lot nicer in 2.2 thanks to the Traversal interface. Dieter's DTML becomes: <dtml-with "getPhysicalRoot().restrictedTraverse(itemURL())"> See the following for more details: http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/Projects/Interfaces/ObjectManagerItem cheers, Chris
