Hello,

I'm sure this is simple, but have not been able to come up with the correct way.

Yep, there's always a simple way.. (o8

If I do this, <dtml-call "FSSession['username'].update(REQUEST.form)">

and then retrieve with, FSSession['username']

I get {'username':'something'}

when of course all I want is something.

What you really should use is something more like: <dtml-call "FSSession.set('username', REQUEST.form['username'])"> or, as is acceptible MOST of the time (when there is not another object of the same name hanging about ) : <dtml-call "FSSession.set('username', username)">

Thanks much,
