[Zope] Problems with absolute_url in my product

[Paul Tiemann]

Zalutations!

I'm running in to a problem here that probably has a simple answer:

I have a class that extends ObjectManager, and that class has another 
ObjectManager attribute called 'data', like this:

class MyChildClass( ObjectManager.ObjectManager ):
    def __init__(self,id):
        self.id = id

class MyZopeClass( ObjectManager.ObjectManager ):
    def __init__(self):
        self._setObject('data', MyChildClass('data'))

I have all of the add forms and constructors in place, and I can add 
instances
of "MyZopeClass" using the ZMI.  If I add one of these instances to my root 
folder as 'myzopeclass' then I can go to http://me:8080/myzopeclass and it 
just throws up the index_html from the root folder because I don't have 
anything defined there...  But I wrote a small dtml method to show the 
absolute_url value for an object, and when I go to 
http://me:8080/myzopeclass/abs it doesn't show the correct absolute URL.

(This is what is in the 'abs' dtml method) "<dtml-var absolute_url>" (that's 
it)

Going to http://me:8080/abs
gives http://me:8080/ as you would hope.

Going to http://me:8080/myzopeclass/abs
gives http://me:8080/ again, but that's not what I expected

Going to http://me:8080/myzopeclass/data/abs
gives http://me:8080// which is odd too.

Is there something I'm missing that is causing the acquisition or something 
else to break?

TIA
-Paul
