[Zope] cascading dictionaries in dtml

[redaguermas@yahoo.com]

I am building a dictionary in an external method:

dict = {'user_name':'jim', 'password':'powers'}

I also add it to the request using:
container.REQUEST.set('results', dict)

The problem is that I am unable to retrive the results dictionary on 
my dtml document. When I do: <dtml-var "REQUEST.get('results')"> I 
can see my dictionary but I am not able to get the individual values 
in the dictionary.
Nothing worked so far. I guess it's a case of cascading dictionaries 
in dtml document.

Help, please
