[Zope] newbie question - variables?

[AM]

page 2 if viewed in both cases should give a key error because var1 or 
var2 are not in its namespace. but both the approaches should work when 
viewing page1 ( I just tested that ).

Could you please provide the error traceback, which should be on the 
page if you are running 2.5.x or in the error_log if you are running 2.6
