How can I access parent objects (and their methods), preferrably starting at some toplevel folder?
E.g. my DTML Method lives in /1/1.1/1.1.1/obj from obj I need to call, or access, or whatever, some SQL-Query that's in /1/1.2/sql_meth 1 |_1.1 | |_1.1.1 | |_obj |_1.2 |_sql_meth
I think it must be done with namespaces but I don't get it. Additionally I would like to avoid relative addressing (such as ../../../../ ) but rather start at the top level.
If the actual names are like what you have above, then you could use: <!--#in "_['1.2'].sql_method()"--> ... That is, you acquire '1.2' and invole it's 'sql_method' method. If you had names like: A |_A_A | |_A_A_A | |_obj |_A_B |_sql_meth it would be a little prettier: <!--#in "A_B.sql_method()"--> ... Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@digicool.com Python Powered!
