[Zope] REQUEST.set question

[Small Business Services]

RE: [Zope] REQUEST.set questionI don't think that acquisition works like that.  I think that you have to pass something to the python script, such as:

<dmtl-var "hello(REQUEST)"> 
or
<dtml-var "hello(REQUEST['nome'])">

  Yes, that will work but it isn't getting the parameter from the REQUEST object, which is the behaviour I was trying (and failing) to implement...i.e. if the parameter is not passed in the call, Zope is supposed to look for a match in the REQUEST object and use that but, for me, that's not happening.

    Sorry, I read your original message too quickly.  Try the following call to your python script:

    <dtml-var "hello('John')">

    This should work.

      Thanks for the input. I was really wondering why the Python script 
      version didn't work. FYI your DTML didn't work as expected either when using 'name'. I changed it to 'nome' and I worked. I think there is a clash in the namespace with 'name'. Unfortunatly it didn't fix the Python version. ho hum...

      The REQUEST.set command creates a variable within the REQUEST namespace 
      called 'name' (in your example) and places 'John' as the contents of that 
      variable. 

      To print out the contents of that variable: 

      <p> this is html 
      Hello <dtml-var name><br> 
      </p> 

      HTH
