Stefan, Thanks for the reply. My question was a little oversimplified, I guess. Here's some more detail. I have: folder.com (a folder) index.html (a ZPT) images (a folder) picture.png (an Image) util (a folder) neat_script (a Script (Python)) from within "neat_script" I want to get the absolute_url of folder.com/index.html container.images['picture.png'].absolute_url() works because of aquisition, I think. container['folder.com'].['index.html'].absolute_url() doesn't work, which is what I need. Thanks for any help! Eric. Stefan H. Holek wrote:

container['index.html'].absolute_url()

How can I reference an object whos id contains a dot. I need to do this in a Python Script.

e.g., in Script (Python): url = container.index.html.absolute_url() ---------------------^ That dot causes problems for me

I didn't find the answer in the archives, so I'm asking here.
