Re: [Zope] Re: Lost in name Space...
James, Thanks for the help. Unfortunately your suggestion did not work, i got a NameError on "sayHellos" (which is a property of the RandomGreeting folder.) I managed to get it to work by two other ways. and I'm just beginning to understand the first way, however, I'm still scratching my head about how the second way works... thanks again for the help, teep - Original Message - From: James Sintz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 'Prateep Siamwalla' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, January 26, 2001 10:27 PM Subject: RE: [Zope] Re: Lost in name Space... > You can also do the following: > > > > Jamey > > > -Original Message- > > From: Prateep Siamwalla [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Friday, January 26, 2001 6:20 AM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: [Zope] Re: Lost in name Space... > > > > Ok, found the answer: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > - Original Message - > > From: Prateep Siamwalla <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Sent: Friday, January 26, 2001 5:55 PM > > Subject: Lost in name Space... > > > > > > > < > > to post this on egroups, but have failed on several occasions.>> > > > > > > Hi, > > > Zope newbie here, a bit lost on namespaces... > > > > > > I have created a folder in the zope root called "RandomGreeting". > > > Inside this folder, there is one DTML METHOD called "Greet".
