hi,

use something like this:

# create Folder in context
 
context.manage_addFolder(folderName)
folderObj=getattr(context,folderName)

# create DTMLDoc in new folder

folderObj.manage_addDTMLDocument(docName)
docObj=getattr(folderObj,docName)

... from here you can manipulate docObj ...

regards, maik
