Dont put . in id's... I try not to anyway. Could we say . or if your id has a . use something else eg: &dtml-foo.[bar.dot].y ? -- Andy McKay, Developer, ActiveState http://www.ActiveState.com Programming for the People ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Withers" <chrisw@nipltd.com> To: "Shane Hathaway" <shane@digicool.com> Cc: "Jonothan Farr" <jfarr@real.com>; <zope-dev@zope.org> Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2000 1:57 PM Subject: [Zope-dev] Aaargh, no safe seperators :S

That would probably work, but isn't kind of ugly? Now we'd be forcing people to realize that colons can be path separators. Only Mac users know this. :-)
Well,
/ and \ are bad XML
; is bad XML, and _really_ ugly
. confuses when there's .'s in ids
Any other suggestions :S
cheers,
Chris
