---------------
The invoices example demonstrates a powerful Zope feature. You
can call an object on a folder by going to a URL that consists
of the folder's URL followed by the id of the object. This
facility is used throughout Zope and is a very general design
pattern. In fact you are not just restricted to calling objects
on folders. You'll see later how you can call objects on all
kinds of Zope objects using the same URL technique.

Calling objects ON folders? This strikes me as non-sensical. Do you mean IN folders? I have never heard the
phrase to call something "on" something else. If this is an advanced programming idea, please explain.
Also, is object to be synonymous with method here?
