[Zope] working with sessions

[Chris McDonough]

Alejandro:

<dtml-call "SESSION.set('foo', 'bar'")>

or...

<dtml-with SESSION>
<dtml-call "set('foo', 'bar')">
</dtml-with>

Please make sure you understand the difference between:

<dtml-call foo>

and

<dtml-call "foo">

See http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZopeBook/DTML.stx#2-58 for
examples of this difference.
