Hi,
i'm trying to use script similar to MoveToRep, with only one difference 
- the id of object in Repository is autogenerated.
i'm little confused, if oldid is A and newid is B after transition i'm 
redirected to .../Repository/A/view which not exists and if i try 
.../Repository/B/view it looks like:
"
...
Error Type: KeyError
Error Value: a.htm
...
"
In Repository.objectIds() i see "B" while getId() of B returns "A".

What am i doing wrong ?

Sorry my bad english.
