Hmm. This doesn't seem to work for me, and it is (I think) essentially the same situation.
I have a Folder with a lines property that contains ids of DTML Documents.
Within my #in tags: <!--#var sequence-item--> will display "test" (which is the ID of my document) <!--#var test.title--> will display the title of that document <!--#var "_[_['sequence-item']].title"--> gives me an attribute error.
I just tried this again, but using a Folder instead of a DTML Document. This works for the Folder, but not for the DTML Doc. Is this a bug in the DTML Document, or am I missing something?
My bad! This is what I meant to say: <!--#var "_.getitem(_.getitem('sequence-item')).title"--> I did not understand the difference between _[] and _.getitem. The DTML User's Guide explains that _[] automatically calls objects, while _.getitem does not by default. So the reason you were getting an attribute error is that Zope was calling the Documents and then looking for a 'title' attribute in the resulting string. time-for-me-to-reread-the-dtml-users-guide-ly yrs, -Amos
