Greetings... After trying constructing an entirely NEW zope install, and winding up with not being able to import the backup of my site, I decided to reboot. Strangely, everything is working again. Oh well... at least i've learned some more about the innards of Zope. Thanks for all those who joined me in my futile search for an answer. -- Have a better one, Curtis. <dtml-var standard_work_disclaimer>
