[Zope] manage_changeWorkflow question

[David Pratt]

I am getting closer:

         # Modify workflow chain (Workflow by type)
         
workflow_tool.manage_changeWorkflows(default_chain='default_workflow',
                                                                         
props=({'name':'chain_Image','value':'image_workflow'}),
                                                                         
REQUEST=None)

No errors now, but it sets all to Default instead of just the Image.... 
  It seems  I am not passing the correct properties.  I am getting name 
and value from the html source of the form.  Anyone know what these 
need to be?
