I have part of a Zope app written largely as Python scripts linking DTML forms that looks conceptually like this:

1. Form A gathers data and then as its action invokes a Python script. 2. Python Script 1 creates a new DTML document and updates its contents based on field data in Form 1. 3. Python Script 1 then uses RESPONSE.redirect() to open a second DTML form, Form 2. 4. Form 2 needs the name of the document Python Script 1 created as well as access to some or all of the data in the fields in Form 1.

What is the best/right/only way to accomplish this goal?

Seems like it should be straight-forward but I've played with several promising ideas that turned out to be dead ends. I'm getting a bit desperate.

All help appreciated!

My preferred solution is to call Form 2 in the context of the new document. Your Python Script creates 'doc1' and then redirects to 'doc1/Form2'. Form 2 then has full access to all the data stored in the new document.
