I just set up the same situation and it worked for me... (ie I get YES back) My guess is that you aren't returning a list.

My get_list() looked like: return ['test','test_str','yes']

I have a PyScript that returns a list of strings

Somehow I am unable to do the following:

<dtml-let ll="get_list()"> <dtml-if "'test_str' in ll"> YES <dtml-else> NO </dtml-if> </dtml-let>

I know that 'test_str' is in the list. The if test fails always. What am I doing wrong??

TIA AM
