Wrestling with the ZopeBook (ScriptingZope.stx), I'm trying to call a script from a DTML document to return eq the title for the document (as learning curve).
The document has: <form action="myScript" method="POST> <input type="submit"> </form>
The 'myScript' has: Return context.title
The result is the title for the folder where the document is in. I'm expecting the title for the document itself.
Context always seems to be the folder I'm working on. How do I get the object (document)?
myScript is not called from within your dtml-method. In your example myScript is just a relative URL that triggers the execution of the script when the user presses the submit button. If I understand you (and zope) correctly, what you're trying to do is to discover from where myScript is called, and this has nothing to do with acquisition. You can find its URL looking at the REQUEST.HTTP_REFERER or easier, create a hidden input in your form: <form action="myScript" method="POST> <input type="hidden" name="caller_title" value="&dtml-title;"> <input type="submit"> </form> and add a caller_title parameter to myScript. Maybe zope provides some nice way to determine the object which has triggered the execution of myScript, I don't know ... REQUEST.HTTP_REFERER and some traversal method can take you to the object.
