If you need to catch these cases, you just have to create a DTML method called 'index.html' at the root of your Zope tree, with the following contents: <dtml-var index_html>

Can you _do_ that without the . confusing Zope?

Yep. You have to be wary of it if you use it in an expression (which could confuse Python), or as Michel pointed out, if you use XML-RPC. Otherwise, putting a "." in an object id does not appear to be a problem. Kevin
