It didn't work exactly like this, but this one did exactly as shown (remeber path is like "06-01-2001/file.pdf"): <--- this gets me into the "06-01-2001" dir <--- this gives me the variable space for file.pdf I'll write a HOW-TO for this in my page, I think it's worth it.

I think, you will also find a compiled FAQ list via the Zope documentation portal (zdp.zope.org). This time, still , I will answer your question: if you would like to use "" inside a Python expression, you can simply omit it (just use the "...") in most cases. It is more safe, however, to use "_[...]" instead, as this gives the same result. In your case (I suppose "path" is a string giving the filename (without path component) that can access the file from the current context!), you could probably use: If "path[11:]" contains pathname component, you probably will need to use "restrictedTraverse" (--> Online API reference).

I have tried your suggestion, and indeed it works. Now, how does this work when the "file.pdf" is given as a DTML-VAR ? The situation is, I retrieve the file names from MySQL, so what I actually have is a . "Path" is something like "06-01-2001/file.pdf". So I try this, but it won't work (it won't parse, actually).

You know Zope's integrated online help? There you would find that files have a method "getSize" that returns their size. In the upcoming Zope bock (-> zope.org), you could read that "dtml-with" can be used to access objects in "foreign" contexts: or will do.
