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

[David Hassalevris]

Sounds like you should just do this:
<dtml-let pid="getProjectIdMTD" bid="getBatchIdMTD">
<dtml-var getProdjectIdMTD><br>
<dtml-var getBatchIdMTD>
If you do not see what you expect then your python scripts (getProjectIdMTD,
getBatchIdMTD) are failing in some way.

If you cant solve this, show us your python scripts.
