[Zope] <input type=hidden value='<dtml-var x>' name=x> and LOOP

[Jim Washington]

hi, servel

stringify your i's:

s = s + "<input type=hidden value='%s' name='filename%s'>" %
((REQUEST.filename + str(i)), i)

or you can 

iterator = str(i)
s = s + "<input type=hidden value='%s' name='filename%s'>" %
((REQUEST.filename + iterator)), iterator)

(you may have to put some of the above lines back together.)
