[Zope] Image's modified-date changes just by viewing?

[Arian de Wit]

Hi All,

Either I am going completely insane or this is fairly obscure and I'm 
just going blind...

I have some images in a folder, for which I use a "view" DTML method 
to display them inside a framework, calling them thusly:

/folder/blah.gif/view

The view method uses dtml-in to produce a list of links to other 
images in the same folder:

<dtml-in expr="objectValues(['Image'])" 
sort="bobobase_modification_time()">

When I view an image using this method, the "Last Modified" date/time 
of that image is updated as a side-effect (or what I think is a side-
effect).


Can someone set me straight on this please? I must be doing something 
screwy, right?


Thanks a lot,

Arian
