two points:

1) "self" has meaning in Product code and in External Methods,
but not Script (Python). Which are you writing?
(I doubt that's the problem because if it was, it wouldn't give
a TypeError, it should give a NameError)

2) Your example looks fine except that it's incomplete.
What's after "for i in ids:"?  
If you try to call i(), you will get that error :-)

foo.objectIds() returns a list of strings.
foo.objectValues() returns a lit of zope objects.
foo.objectItems() returns a list of (id, object) pairs.
