So you're storing the sequence as a string of the type shown above...

...ow ;-)

Might be best to change your SQL Schema so your store one row per
option...

Nasty hack external method:

def eval_options(self):
	return eval(self.REQUEST['options'])

then you can do:

<dtml-in eval_options>

...but be careful with that external method, it could be used to do all
sorts of bad things if it gets into the wrong hands.

cheers,
