Example: I'm passing the following: parms=['item1','item2','item3'] and the Pythonic way to access an item of this list would be simply parms[0] or parms[1] etc.

But when I try <dtml-var parms[0]> I get a KeyError for parms[0]. Doing <dtml-var parms> shows the list all right. I can interate over the list with <dtml-in parms> all right also. But I need to get particular items of the list and cannot figure out how to do that.

Try: <dtml-var "parms[0]"> <dtml-var expr="parms[0]"> is actually the correct expression but for convinience <dtml-var ...> will call the argument if it is callable. Use quotes whenever you need to suplly arguments etc. Pavlos
