[Product-Developers] Re: custom at edit form?

Still fails. :( Same error. :(

I am now suspecting that the problem has to do with base_edit.cpt being 
a *cpt* and not a *pt*. I think, when I make my changes, 
base_validate.vpy is not called and thus 'errors' is not populated for 
the field.pt to access.

Anyone have any hints along this line? Zope 2 is so arcane! ;)
