[Zope] eval in PyScript

[Chris Beaven]

Try this way:

req=container.REQUEST
if req.has_key(field_name):
    val = req[field_name]
    if val != None: return val
return ''

I cant seem to be able to call eval() from my script... Do I have to do 
something special to make it happen?

The error:

Error Type: NameError
Error Value: global name 'eval' is not defined

the script:

req=container.REQUEST
if req.has_key(field_name):
    val = eval('req.'+field_name)
    if val != None: return val
return ''



TIA
AM
