[Zope] Referring to a total-xxx variable

[icottee]

Following on from my last posting I seem to have made a lot of progress -
although still not sure if what I have done is the right thing or not. However,
please somebody put me out of my misery. In the following code snippet the
dtml-var part works fine. How can I, therefore,  add count-id to v_allItems? It
seems to think I am trying to do subtraction. I've spent a couple of hours
trying to find the mystical incantation.

dtml-in "PARENTS[0].objectValues(['TimeSheet'])"

   dtml-var count-id

   dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + count-id)"

/dtml-in

Replace this

|dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + count-id)"

with this

 dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + _['count-id'])"

try to avoid hyphens in variable names as much as possible, it tends to
get messy.

Hi:

Instead of
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + count-id)"

try:

dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + _['count-id'])"
The _ is the 'current namespace' dictionary.

Another way would be to do this:

dtml-let ci=count-id
  dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + ci )"
/dtml-let

Hope this helps,
Shalabh

Many thanks to both you and Andrew. I should really sit down and write out all
the different ways of reffering to variables and learn them properly.

I had tried to use something similar to

dtml-let ci=count-id
  dtml-call "REQUEST.set('v_allItems', v_allItems + ci )"
/dtml-let

and I thought it hadn't worked. However, just tried again and it does so I am
obviously loosing the plot.

Many thanks for your help
