[Zope] passing parameters from dtml-method to Script (Python)

[R Karthick]

Hi!!!

I am relatively a newbie to zope, this might b jus
another newbie question. but i am really stuck in
this.

I have a dtml-method which does the following

<dtml-let pid="getProjectIdMTD" bid="getBatchIdMTD">
    <b><center><dtml-var expr="gimmeBack(a=pid,
b=bid)"></center></b>
</dtml-let>

--

getProjectIdMTD and getBatchIdMtd are just script
python methods, which return simple strings. they jus
do 

return "foo"

--

return "bar"

--

Now when i call the function gimmeBack(a=pid,b=bid),
the pid and bid are not passed into the function. I am
able to <dtml-var pid>, and it shows the value of pid.

foo

my gimmeBackMtd has 

return a

No matter how i tried, I am just not able to make it
work. But when I assign pid and bid with strings like

<dtml-let pid="'foo'" bid="'bar'">

it works. Doesnt Script Python function return strings
even if they appear to?

Please help!!!

Regards,
R K
