[Zope] Re: Trouble with dtml-with

[Smith, Neil (Worcester)]

A simple <dtml-with FolderB> should  find it.  The dtml-with uses aquisition
to find FolderB, so if you're in FolderC it doesn't find it there, but
descends into the folder below, and there it is.  This works for me, does it
not work for you?

Sorry... I am not seeing this.  Method1 (which is contained in FolderC)
wishes to call Method2 which is in FolderB.  FolderB is adjacent to FolderC
(FolderC contains Method1).  In my previous coding that hasn't been on the
normal acquisition path:  Method1 can't "see" Method2 unless I bring FolderB
into the namespace.

Thanks for your patience with me.

It is more important for what object you call "Method1" than
where is lives (the latter is usually irrelevant).

When you call "Method1" for an object in "FolderC", then it will find
"FolderB" (through acquisition).
