This will call the method using the root folders' namespace, thereby showing all qualifiying subfolders regardless of where the method is called from. You might have to modify your method to construct absolute URL's.
Thanks! What I actually wanted was sidebar(PARENTS[0], REQUEST), but you pointed me in the direction I needed. Now I have to understand it, but that's much easier with working code. This also led me to find a bug. I was wondering why the REQUEST parameter was needed, so I tried to remove it. The next time I loaded a page calling this code, the ZServer process died with the Win32 equivalent of a segfault. Is it just me? I don't dare try it on another Zope server =).
