I'm trying to keep around some legacy code, in zope 2.5.1 (CMF 1.3)

trying to surround a block with <dtml-with "portal_url.getPortalObject()"> so I reference root level folders. I get the error:

Error Type: TALESError Error Value: exceptions.AttributeError on getPortalObject

Almost surely, "portal_url" in not the object you expect. I expect it to be a string in the code above. Note that the "portal_url" object yields a string as soon as it is called. And it is *very* easy to call an object unintentionally both in ZPT and DTML. The code snippet above does not call "portal_url" but something in the context may already have when "portal_url" was bound. -- Dieter
