I apologize for the question (the zope area of my brain must need
coffee) but I can't find the answer in the zope book or in any of the
scripts posted to the zope cookbook.
I want to use a variable in a acquisition path.
So for example, from the zope book on scripts, imagine that
vaccinateplan() printed out a specific animals vaccination plan.
Now instead of saying 'LargeAnimals' and 'hippo' like so:
print context.Vet.LargeAnimals.hippo.vaccinateplan()
I want to do like this:
category = REQUEST.form['category']
animal = REQUEST.form['animal']
print context.Vet.category.animal.vaccinateplan()
but I get an Attribute Error. How do I eval a variable within the
acquisition path?
Thanks,
Tim
