Hi,

Try this (untested):
<dtml-with "y['z']">
<dtml-as-usual>
</dtml-with>

: Thanks, but I found that I had really asked the wrong question...
: If I am in namespace x and I need a variable from namespace z in the =
form of
: x
: |_y
:    |_z
: How do I access z from a method called from x?
: I know (now) that I can do this by nested dtml-with calls but that is =
really
: messy.
: <dtml-with y>
: <dtml-with z>
:     <dtml-var my_z_var>
:     <dtml-call my_x_method_needs_my_z_var>
: </dtml-with>
: </dtml-with>

: Is there a less painful way of being able to access z namespace =
variables
: without nesting 200 dtml with calls?
