I'm still getting allsorts of errors. My code is like this...

<dtml-let yearnr="date.yy()" monthnr="date.mm()" daynr="date.dd()">
    <dtml-let startDateString="monthnr+'/'+daynr+'/'+yearnr">


    <dtml-in expr="get_days_events(startDateString)">
        <dtml-var EventName>
    </dtml-in>

    </dtml-let>

</dtml-let>

I'm having trouble passing StartDateString to get_days_events. If I look at
StartDateString using <dtml-var startDateString> it looks OK.

one last attempt anyone?

cheers
