When this is put into an SQL database, the field 'options' is this (string)

So you're storing the sequence as a string of the type shown above... ...ow ;-) Might be best to change your SQL Schema so your store one row per option... Nasty hack external method: def eval_options(self): return eval(self.REQUEST['options']) then you can do: <dtml-in eval_options> ...but be careful with that external method, it could be used to do all sorts of bad things if it gets into the wrong hands. cheers, Chris
