[Zope] what am I doing wrong?

I have a form that looks exactly like the manage_addImageForm, except that it
has a hidden field, goto, which contains a url. The form posts to a method
called myCreateImage
myCreateImage looks like this
<dtml-call "manage_addImage">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(goto)">
Everything executes error free, but no new image gets created. The redirection
does occur, however. I purposely have no try/catch clause, hoping to spot an
exception. no luck.
any ideas?
I am logged in as superuser, so it is not a permissions problem.
I had similar problems trying to create an instance of a ZClass product, only I
couldn't even figure out how to call the manage_addProduct function. I wound up
solving the problem with some unbelievably ugly code in the myClass_add function
which detects how it is being added and redirects users to different places,
etc. It was made particularly hard because I wanted to be able to create an
instance of another ZClass inside my newly created ZClass some of the time. I
finally did it with a very ugly redirect call.
There must be another way!!!
