--=======40877611=======
Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-10426CCA; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This works: <dtml-var amount fmt="%.2f">

But suppose I go:
<dtml-let amountformat="'%.2f'">
     This doesn't work: <dtml-var amount fmt=amountformat>
     Nor this: <dtml-var amount fmt="amountformat">
</dtml-let>

I just get
Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: not all arguments converted


With a dateobject it's easier thanks to the strftime() method of any date 
object.
What about strings, ints and floats in DTML??
