[Zope] problem with let tag

Change your code to

<dtml-let foo="'blah'">
<dtml-var foo>
</dtml-let>

Notice the single quotes within the double quotes, the let tag takes a
string and does a sort of eval on it, this means that strings have to be
quoted within the string. If you see what I mean ;?)

Hello ALL,

According to documentation zope.org this should work:
<dtml-let foo="blah">
<dtml-var foo>
</dtml-let>

but it does not, I get an error
Error Type: NameError
Error Value: blah

It seems that it considers blah as a variable, so how could I tell
zope that it's just a string?


Best regards,
 Ainis                          mailto:ainis@mindless.com
