But the DTML Method doesn't have access to the namespace!
What namespace?
The regular DTML namespace, _.
You probably want the instance's namespace plus the request namespace. If this is the case, you want:
def test(self, REQUEST=None): return self.myDTMLMethod(self, REQUEST)
Nope, doesn't work! For example, first try a plain DTML Document called "A": <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-let food="'Popcorn'"> X says: <dtml-var X> </dtml-let> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> which calls a DTML Method called "X": My favorite food is <dtml-var food> Run A and you'll get: X says: My favorite food is Popcorn Now make a method called "test" which also calls X: def test(self, REQUEST=None): return self.X(self, REQUEST) But try to call X through test: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-let food="'Popcorn'"> test says: <dtml-var test> </dtml-let> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> and I get: Error Type: KeyError Error Value: food See, X can no longer see "food" in the namespace.
