[Zope-dev] ZClass Meta Types

[Jason Spisak]

Holy Moly!

And I thought you could just ask for the absoluteURL() plus the
REQUEST['id'] ;)
Actually, I just tried it and I get a NameError when I call urllib. 
Imports?  It there something else missing?  I just copy/pasted it.  Just
out of curiousity(mostly because I know very little python), why return
a script_name based url?  

Thanks so much!
