[Zope] whats wrong with this code

[Chris Kratz]

Hmmm, your code is correct for a dictionary.  I copied it directly into a
python script and it ran without error.  We do this quite often in some of
our python scripts:

--Python Script--

item = {}
item['hello'] = 'bye'
return item['hello']

-----------------

prints bye when you click the test tab.  Is there any other code that might
be giving you the len error?  My test was in Zope 2.4.1 running with a
compiled version of python 2.1.1 on RH 7.2.
