Beware of the sequence-item snafu; to use it in expressions, you must refer to it as _['sequence-item']! Anyone know why this is?
This is (probably) because as an expression 'sequence-item' is interpreted as 'sequence' - 'item' (subtraction). You can <dtml-let si=sequence-item> and than use si in expressions without any problem. Or, you can use _['sequence-item'] like you mention, which indexes the namespace directly. (Wonder why its not sequence_item, which wouldn't have caused any such problem?) ~Shalabh ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Good programmers know what to write.
