First of all, make sure you don't try to define classes that should be persistent in an external method... it wont work the way you expect it to. Second (untested): def getRecords(self): """ """ class record: __allow_access_to_unprotected_subobjects__ = 1 # this may be unnecessary? pass r = record().__of__(self) r.height = '25' return [r]

(I've seen other similar posts on the mailing list, but I haven't seen the answer, so I'll re-phrase the question and hope someone can help.)

I've got an external method that returns a list of record objects:

def getRecords(self):

class record: pass

r = record() r.height = '25' return [r]

Then I've got a dtml-document that uses this list:

<dtml-in "getRecords()"> <dtml-var height> </dtml-in>

This worked great before I upgraded to Zope 2.2, now when I "view" the dtml-method, I get a popup asking for me to re-authenticate (which, of course, fails every time).

The other posts I've seen similar to this have all involved using <dtml-in> to iterate over the results of a database query. It appears that there may be a problem with <dtml-in> in Zope 2.2.

Please help!
