Ok. Sorry to jump to quickly on that one; I am partially wrong. <dmtl-var expr="_['2000'].id"> will work; so will <dtml-in expr="_['2000'].objectValues()"> (returns a sequence). However, in the case of something like this: <dtml-var expr="_['5000']._['5100'].id"> Zope has some security/permissions issue with that (when I try to run a method with code like this as a manager, I get a basic auth box?). I assume that the workaround would have to be using dtml-with one namespace at a time... That is, unless someone has a better way to do this.

Sean -----Original Message----- From: Ausum [mailto:augusto@artlover.com] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 8:19 AM To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] Namespace problem with folders starting with numbers I need to retrieve a property nested at a document placed within folders whose names start with numbers. Like this: <dtml-var "folder1.2000.12345.dtmldoc.this_property"> This sintax is invalid because there are object names that are starting with numbers, within the Python expression. Is there a workaround? (I've tried the usual ones, unsuccessfully).
