If I create a ZSQL method called "by_id", and set it to use direct traversal, and give it a URL like this: http://foo.com/by_id/board It returns my page at /board, rather than passing board as the value required by ZSQL method. If I do this; http://foo.com/by_id/board/my_display_method it raises an error, as my_display_method never gets the results of the ZSQL method, therefore, things that would have passed along, like board member name, etc., never arrive. An obvious but icky solution is to not have anything in my acquisition path that might be passed as a value to the ZSQL method. This is really ugly though, since new values are added to the database all the time, and it would be hard to make sure this doesn't happen. Ideas? Fellow sufferers? Workarounds? All would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Joel Burton <jburton@scw.org> Director of Information Systems, Support Center of Washington
