[Zope] WebDAV, Object types: Fie!

[Iago]

  Didn't get a response on this, but did figure out an operative fix,
  which I'll post about in the interests of making it useful for anyone
  searching the mailing list archives:

    try:
        try:
            mytext = context['content.html']()
        except AttributeError:
            mytext = context['content.html']
        print mytext 
    except KeyError:
        print "<p>No content here yet!</p>"
