Hi,

The zope management interface has some robustness problems:

whenever you call manage_workspace (the normal way of managing a folder 
through the HTML Zope management interface) on a folder X, and some 
object y in that folder gives an error (fi, it has no title attribute, ) 
the whole folder becomes unmanageble. The only thing you can do at that 
point is to manually delete the problematic object by typing:

http://..../X/manage_delObjects?ids=y

It seems to me that an object in a folder should not interfere with the 
management of the folder (at least, you should be able to throw the 
object out of the folder)


probably, a try/except or <dtml-try> in the right place fix this.

have fun,

Sloot.
