Not sure if this is your problem, but since methods don't have namespaces,
I'm not sure why your code could not be reduced to:
dtml-if expr="id != 'edit'"
dtml-var index.html
dtml-else
dtml-var chunk_editFrameset
/dtml-if
The namespace of index_html right now is 'edit' (or another folder that
acquires it)
...and...
if the namespace of index_html is 'edit' than the namespace of index.html
will also be, and ergo, the namespace of chunk_dspPrimaryCol will also be
edit (index.html doesn't have a method unto itself), changing your code to:
dtml-if expr="id != 'edit'"
dtml-var chunk_dspPrimaryColPublic
dtml-else
dtml-var chunk_dspPrimaryColEdit
/dtml-if
Just keep in mind, that any object with a namespace (folders, documents,
certain class instances) that is in the acquisition path can have that
namespace explicitly invokes with dtml-with name_of_object. This only
works for object with a namespace; methods are not acquirable objects, and
though you might call them objects (in a loose sense) they are not objects
in a Zopish sense.
I don't know if my sugestion will work for you, but hopefully it will help.

Subject: [Zope] Poor Procedural Programmer Needs OOPish Enlightenment
or...
"A Cry for Namespace Help"
I seem to have run into one of those Zope namespace issued that's
starting to make me dizzy.
I have a index_html method that displays content conditionally
depending on where it's called. It looks like this:
dtml-if expr="PARENTS[0].id != 'edit'"
dtml-var index.html
dtml-else
dtml-var chunk_editFrameset
/dtml-if
The chunk_editFrameset method also displays the same index.html file in
one of two frames. This works like a champ. If I'm in a directory
called edit when this is called, it displays the frameset. Otherwise,
it displays the index.html directly.
The index.html method is contains a bunch 'o static html plus another
method called chunk_dspPrimaryCol that also conditionally displays
information based on where it's called. chunk_dspPrimaryCol looks like
this:
dtml-if expr="PARENTS[0].id != 'edit'"
dtml-var chunk_dspPrimaryColPublic
dtml-else
dtml-var chunk_dspPrimaryColEdit
/dtml-if
This doesn't work like I'd hoped, since I have to move back up the
namespace stack to find index.html, and by the time I do I'm no longer
in the edit folder. So I _always_ end up displaying the
chunk_dspPrimaryColPublic method, even if I call the index_html method
from within the edit folder.
What I need (I think) is a way to keep all of this activity in the
edit Folder. Or I need some other way of solving this problem. Any
thoughts? I hope my description was clear enough...
