[Zope] ZClasses and "title" property

[Jason Cunliffe]

Hi Tim,

I _think_ the problem may be that your choice of property is unlucky,
because 'title' is already defined by default in Zope.
Try changing it to something else and test. For example: 'timtitle'

In 2.3b1 you can go to the built in Help System by selecting 'Zope Quick
Start' + 'GO' [use the management top HTML frame]
Then use seerch for title and see what comes up... a long list since as you
will see.

Hope this helps. Welcome to wide, deep, free land of Zope ...and good luck!

- Jason
