I can tell you, why you get the syntax error.
Luis Cortes has told you, how you could do your job.


Explanation:
  Python distinguishes between expressions which can be "eval"ed
  and commands which can be "exec"ed.
  Assignments are commands, as are definitions, if, for, while constructs.

  Zope uses "eval" to evaluate expressions in DTML-tags.
  "eval" raises a SyntaxError when confronted with a command.

I tried the same thing, it doesn't work (or at least, I haven't found a way to
make it work).

What I do now is use REQUEST.set('totalActive',0 ) and
REQUEST.get('totalActive') when I need the value.  The other alternative is to
write it in a python method.

Regards,
Luis.
