Zope ZSQLMethod Question

[Phil Harris]

because AUTHENTICATED_USER is an object whose 'default' property/method is
getUserName.  Zope is clever/stupid enough to render this automatically in
simple <dtml-var...> tags, but not in other places.

if in doubt always use the recognised method, in this case
AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName.

if in your SQL method you use <dtml-var "AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()">,
all will be well.

If you haven't yet got the Zope Quick Reference, go get it now, you won't
regret it. ;)
