I am slowly getting the hang of Zope, but am confused about something. Either I don't understand how acquisition works, or there is something special about how index_html is treated. I had a folder with a index_html that had something like: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-var content> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> Then in the top level folder, I had a "content" object that I filled in with text. In a subfolder, I created a content object, but it didn't seem to override the upper layer one unless I copied down a copy of index_html. I would have thought it would have gone up a layer for index_html, but then would have discovered content at the lower layer. It seems this would be very powerful, but I am guessing there is a good reason. I wondered why standard_html_header and standard_html_footer seemed to be used everywhere, but I am starting to see, I think why. Is it possible to have just one top level object that refers to other objects that get overridden as you go into other folders?
