[Zope] Re: Defining a dictionary in ZPT?

[michael nt milne]

So doing some more routing around on the lists I saw this advice

Therefore my db connection object is

ado_db_connection. Modifying my code to the below and calling the
query method of the adapter now gives me an 'insufficient priviledges' in my
Plone site...Nearly there I feel. Strange as I am logged in as the
uberuser...

<ul>
<li tal:define="query here/testquery" tal:repeat="result python:
context.ado_db_connection().query(id='IT')">
<span tal:replace="repeat/result/firsname">firstname goes here</span>
</li>
</ul>
