[Zope] Restricting URL access to objects that are not complete web pages

[Phil Harris]

Chris, Stephen,

Wouldn't an external method something like the following work for the
moment?

def getobj(self,url=None):
    if url==None:
        return None
    return self.restrictedTraverse(url)

so in dtml you can do something like:

<dtml-var "getobj(url='/home/myfolder/index_html')">

or

<dtml-var "getobj(url='/home/myfolder/index_html').absolute_url()">

etc.

maybe?!!?
