I'm having trouble accessing my session variables inside genshi
templates.

Somewhere in code I have this statement.

session['cartitems'] = len(cart.items)

That stores in a session variable the number of items inside your
cart.

I call the variable this way inside the template

<p>You have ${session['cartitems']} in your cart</p>

And works well, but if a start a new session I get this error.

UndefinedError: {} has no member named "cartitems"

so I modified the code to look like this

<py:if test="hasattr(session, 'cartitems')">
  <p>You have ${session['cartitems']} in your cart</p>
</py:if>

and always resolves to false, cause I never get to see how many items
I have inside my cart anymore. The same happens with:

<py:if test="defined(session['cartitems'])">
  <p>You have ${session['cartitems']} in your cart</p>
</py:if>

${value_of(session['cartitems'], default='0'}   always returns '0'

I don't know how the tests are performed, but some help will be nice.

Thanks
