What is wrong with this construct?

<dtml-let a="mp_entries.getEntryField(_['key'],'f1071131972')" b="mp_entries.getEntryField(_['key'],'f1071139087')" c="a*b"

<dtml-var c>

</dtml-let>

I get this Zope Error: Error Type: TypeError Error Value: unsupported operand type(s) for *

a and b are both float variables.

You think they should be but apparently, they are not (otherwise, "a*b" would not raise this exception). Try "float(a) * float(b)". -- Dieter
