I have some code to generate some simple folders, for a side tree-bar. "foldername" contains all my site data.

The idea is that as I walk through the folders in "foldername", I print out a link to it, and then if I happen to be in that folder at the moment, I print out a list of all its subfolders etc.

However, I don't think that I can access the "id" variable as an object, can I ? What should I be trying to do ? Is there a better way of doing it than this ? (which nearly works!)

<a href="/">home</a> <dtml-in expr="foldername.objectValues(['Folder'])"> <a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var title></a> <dtml-if expr="'/foldername/' + id == REQUEST.PATH_TRANSLATED"> <ul> <dtml-in expr="id.objectValue(['Folder'])"> <li><a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var title></a> </dtml-in> </ul> </dtml-if> <p><dtml-var id></p>

Inside the body of the outer dtml-in, its sequence-item objects (the folders) are pushed onto the dtml namespace stack. It is sufficient to do just: <dtml-in "objectValues(['Folder'])">
