Hi,

Inside quotation marks, you're writing python, so <dtml-var cntry_cd> makes
the parser barf. cntry_cd is pushed onto the namespace by the <dtml-in>, so
you can simply use:

<dtml-in SQL_get_cntry>
  <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setCookie('country_cookie', cntry_cd)">
</dtml-in>

Note also the slash in the closing </dtml-in>.

hth,
