You probably want to store just

  example

as the string in the class' property.

Let's say the property is called method_to_show. In a dtml-method, you
can refer to the text in method_to_show with <dtml-var method_to_show>,
as you've discovered.

To get the acquired method called "example", you'd use something like

  <dtml-var "_[method_to_show]">

In this case, this is roughly equivalent to <dtml-var example>.


Also, please post to this list in plain text format rather than HTML
format. Many readers of this list just skip over HTML formatted email --
you're more likely to get an answer you a query if the post is plain
text.
