[Zope] Re: Methods in a Simple Class

[Alexandre Ratti]

Hi Olivier,


This sounds like a namespace issue.

When using the Python quoted syntax I think you need to enclose the namespace:

Could you try this:

<dtml-var "myClass.render_1(_.None, _)">


Here are explainations straight from my Zope snippets:

 > 'body', period.

Note you could also pass additional variables:

Glop ?
