It's tough to fill in the blanks, but here goes: I'm assuming that myMethod is associated with index_html? If not, what *are* you calling and how? How is id generated? Do you type it in your manage_addMyClass form or is it generated by some more clever means... something that persists information between instances, perhaps? Might it be a combination of the two? What if you copy & pasted instance B to be in the same container as A and call: http://mysite/myClassInstaceB What does that give you? My first guess here would be that you goofed somehow and have derived id from something that's remained constant between instances... a class variable or an argument default, perhaps. My second guess would be that you're not actually calling myMethod, but something else entirely. A distant third would be that somehow you're not assigning instance B an id at all... that might cause id to be acquired from its parent. Does any of this reveal any new information?

Howdy -

I have a python product, with a simple class MyClass derived from Folder. It has a simple method myMethod with the following code:

def myMethod(self): return self.id

I have several nested instances of myClass on my site, but here is a simplest case:

myClassInstanceA | |__myClassInstanceB

I also have a simple template (zpt), with the following code:

<span tal:content="here/myMethod"/>

Here is the problem: when I go to http://mysite/myClassInstanceA/myClassInstaceB, the output of my zpt is always 'myClassInstanceA', where I would expect it to be 'myClassInstanceB'. What am I missing? Do I need to do more than just inherit from Folder class? Do I need anything special in my __init__ method?

Thanks, Daniel.
