Apparently, funcB doesn't know where to look for the definition of funcA.
Script bodies aren't like Python modules; They are function bodies. The most direct translation of what you wrote into plain Python is: def myScript(): def funcA(): print "<p>Hello, from funcA()!</p>" def funcB(): print "<p>Hello, from funcB()! I also have a message from funcA()...</p>" funcA() funcB() myScript() When funcB() executes, it can't find "funcA" in the local or global namespaces, since it's only defined in the body of myScript(). Python 2.1 supports nested scopes, so your example will work as expected in Zope 2.4. Cheers, Evan @ digicool
