[Zope-dev] Object called from DTML

[Brian R Brinegar]

Okay,

I have developed a product. When an instance of the product is called from
DTML like, <dtml-var object>, REQUEST is not available. If I call a python
script or a DTML Method from DTML REQUEST is available. The __call__
method is defined like this:

def __call__(self, client=None, REQUEST={}, RESPONSE=None, **kw):
    if REQUEST == {}:
        print "No REQUEST defined"
    else:
        print "REQUEST defined"

I get "No REQUEST defined" when I call this <dtml-var object> if I call
this directly it works.

What am I doing wrong? How do I make my product work when called from
DTML?

Thanks,
-Brian
