[Zope] manage_add with results

[Paul Zwarts]

Hi again Phil,

Sorry, I feel like a boob having to email you again. I'm a bit stuck
again... I understand mostly how acquisition works, and this is a bit
difficult. I get a NameError from the dtml-method I want to output into a
new manage_addDocument.

What happens is I traverse to the directory where i want to PLACE the
method. Then the method to output is called with a name_error of db_methods
(which is a directory containing ZSQL methods to run)

I understand that being in the directory I want to place is below
db_methods, so I use a:

<dtml-with "PARENTS[0].db_methods">
  blah
</dtml-with>

I've used this many times and understand it works, but now I get the same
NameError about PARENTS.

I hope this isnt a burdening quesiton, it probably requires code reviewing,
but I just dont understand how Zope cannot understand a call to its root
level....


Thanks again if you have an idea,
Paz

You probably need to call it like so then:

manage_addDocument(id=something, file=spiral(_.None,_,any,other,parameters),
...)
