ok, objectIds() returns only the list of IDs of the documents but not the objects themselves. In this case you need to use objectValues(). sequence-var-title should work then. -aj ----- Original Message ----- From: "Learned" <learned@talentsinc.net> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 22:58 Subject: [Zope] Structured Text & Variables

Thanks Andreas, that's almost got it, but it raised a new question on something I thought I understood.

<ul> <dtml-in expr="objectIds('DTML Document')"> <li><a href="showdoc?docId=<dtml-var sequence-item>"><dtml-var sequence-item></a></li><br> </dtml-in> </ul>

is what you suggested, and I changed it to show the title of the document thus:

<ul> <dtml-in expr="objectIds('DTML Document')"> <li><a href="showdoc?docId=<dtml-var sequence-item>"><dtml-var sequence-var-title></a></li><br> </dtml-in> </ul>

It still returns the DocID, not the title. I also tried using dtml-var title by itself as my assumption was within a dtml-in block, the current variables would point to what ever document was being referrenced as it has been pushed onto the top of the stack. Neither worked. What obvious element of sequence vars am I missing?
