[Zope-dev] Re: DTML Zclass ID bug - HELP!

[Toby Dickenson]

You need to add the following setName call to the constructor... I'm not
sure whether this is a solution, or a hack.

<!--#with "hta.createInObjectManager(REQUEST['id'], REQUEST)"-->
<dtml-call "setName(REQUEST['id'])">
<!--#/with-->

Did anyone solve the problem describe by Anthony below ?

I'd really like to know because it sounds suspiciously like one of my own 
ZClass ailments: I can't access a ZClass instance ID and I can't display 
its value on a property sheet.


Thanks.
