Ok, I searched the archives again and again and took a glance at Dieter Maurer's book and found that it seems to be a bigger problem to adress an object (in my case a folder) by a path (=string). You found something like that in my book?
Then, apparently, I need to change something. It is not a "bigger" problem to address an object! You use "Computed Attribute Access", "Computed Variable/Object Access" or "restrictedTraverse". All not too difficult....
Some of the solutions I found involved the use of "restrictedTraverse", so I played around with that for a while.
My site looks like that:
/ |-admin/---- managegallery.htm | galleries/ ---- gallery1/ ---- gallery2/
......
in "managegallery.htm" I now have the following code:
<dtml-call expr="REQUEST.set ('working_folder', 'galleries.'+gallery_id)"> <dtml-with expr="restrictedTraverse(_[working_folder])"> Here you use both "Computed Object Access" *AND* "restrictedTraverse". Use just one, not both:
<dtml-with expr="restrictedTraverse(working_folder)"> or <dtml-with expr="_.getitem(working_folder)"> You read in my book the difference between "_.getitem(...)", and "_[...]"? You already understand why to use "getitem" rather than subscription? Dieter
