[Don Brooksby]

Thank you all for the help and info.

I now have the errors coming up properly, thanks Paul.  So now I can see =
what is going on.  I was able to trace the root of the problem and it =
came up to where I was referencing a value that was not passing right. =20

I have changed the reference and BAM! it works.

Dario, I am taking your suggestion on Python - I'm hitting the books and =
info available to trap errors etc through Python.

Much thanks, all mighty Zope Mentors.

Also, Don, you really don't want to use DTML for that kind of stuff. =
Better
to direct the posting of the form to a pythons script ("Script (Python)" =
as
they are called in the ZMI) and then generate error messages form there =
and
then either redirecting to or calling a DTML-method to report
errors/success.

Doing all that in DTML is way to hard to be worth the effort - been =
there,
done that - and you'll be able to write code that traps errors in a much
nicer way than you can do in DTML - and as a bonus you will find that =
yopur
code will easier to write and debug.

My 2 <insert lowly currency here> worth.
