[Zope] newbie cuestion

[miah34@msn.com]

I was just working on a similar problem.  I'm not sure if this is the right 
way to do it, but if I'm wrong, somebody will correct me.  Try this:

<dtml-in rowsnamesmethod>
    <dtml-var expr="_.getitem(rowname,1)">
</dtml-in>

My understanding is that the '1' tells it to render the variable.  If you 
put in a '0' instead, it just displays it - probably like what you're 
getting now.  This is discussed in the Zope Book in Ch. 7: Variables and 
Advanced DTML - pg. 107
