Is this bug or feature- when i call html method from html document, html method is treated as html document. For example I have an html method called "standard_html_header" in which I have <dtml-tree... tag but it shows up only when called from index_html method, but if my index_html is Document tree does not show up :(.

You may want to check out this doc: http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/HowTos/DTMLMethodsandDocsHowTo This describes the differences between Methods and Documents. Basically, a Method works within the namespace of its container. If an index_html Method calls standard_html_header to produce a tree, the container that the methods act upon is the Folder than contains index_html. Therefore, the tree lists the other objects available in the Folder. If index_html is a Document, then the standard_html_header operates with the Document as the container and would try to list other objects contained within the Document... That said, I still recommend reading over Michel's doc. Kevin
