[Zope] Permission Question

[Loren Stafford]

I have no experience in this matter, but I've seen several questions of this
nature pass thru this mailing list, and all had the same answer:

Somewhere, probably in a navigation method, there's a DTML statement like
this:

<!--#in SOME_LIST_OF_OBJECTS-->

...that should look like this:

<!--#in SOME_LIST_OF_OBJECTS skip_unauthorized-->

Joe gets an error because the navigation method is trying to show him
something he's not authorized to see.
