[Zope] How to insert a DTML doc given its ID as a string?

[Phil Harris]

Eeee, you don't wanna do that!

returning document_src will give you the unrendered view of it, something
like this will be better:

#test if thisWeeklyMain exists
doc = getattr(context, 'thisWeeklyMain', None)
if doc:
  # if yes return its content
  return doc(context,context.REQUEST)
else:
  # other document must exist
  return getattr(context, 'otherDoc')(context,context.REQUEST)

this passes the namespace into the document and also uses context as the
container.
