I am trying to use a call like this:

But it gives me Name Error: sequence.

Two questions: (1) Why are there -'s in variable names? (2) How do I get around that?

I asked much the same question whilst replying to a very similar question recently. the -'s in the names is from times predating Python expressions (afaik). to access that var, use the _ namespace: <dtml-call "foo(var=_['sequence-item'])"> -- Have a better one, Curtis. <dtml-var standard_work_disclaimer>
