Hi Shane,

I dug up the mail :-)

Sorry, but I was using either Zope 2.2.0 or 2.2.1 :-S
Has this been covered by other bugfixes?

I guess that made it into the new version of ZDebug?

Right, next up, it would be really useful if the error page could show a
dump of the REQUEST object. So I tried this patch:

Sadly, whenever this code gets called, Zope restarts! :-(
Any ideas? (this was all on Zope 2.2.0 and 2.2.1)

cheers,
