Hi all

I am strugging with accessing acl_users
from DTML, and maybe someone here can
tell me what I'm doing wrong.

I am trying to make a page where users
can change their own passwords.

I have a DTML document with "Manager"
proxy role.  It is a form that lets the user
enter "password" and "confirm" and
contains a hidden field for "name"
taken from AUTHENTICATED_USER.

It has a submit button with value "Change",
and in all respects, as far as I can tell,
should post in the same way as the
corresponding form in 
acl_users.manage_users?submit=edit

It posts to itself, where I do this:

<dtml-if "REQUEST_METHOD=='POST'">
 <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('roles',AUTHENTICATED_USER.getRoles())">
 <dtml-var "acl_users.manage_users(REQUEST=REQUEST)">
</dtml-if>

I don't get errors, but the password is not changed,
and I can't see why.

Has anyone ever got this sort of thing to work?
And if so, how?

Peter Harris
