[Zope] Re: [Zope-dev] Simple question about namespaces

[Sidnei da Silva]

Ive read about this Localizer, and it seems pretty like what i want to do, 
but i couldnt figure if it will work when i have folders inside my templates 
folder containing some specialized images. 

My only concern in doing this is not duplicate documents and images across 
templates and continue using folders to organize images inside the templates, 
like the problem described at this page:

http://www.zope.org/Members/Hoekstra/ChangingZopeContexts

I want to have:
SpecialTemplate/images/header1.jpg
SpecialTemplate/images/header2.jpg
NormalTemplate/images/header2.jpg

and when i access:
/SpecialTemplate/NormalTemplate/mydtmlmethod
 
i want it to show header1.jpg of SpecialTemplate and header2.jpg of 
NormalTemplate *without* having to tell mydtmlmethod where are this images.

I have found another product called the Mirrowing Folder, that does something 
like this. But i wish to go a little further:

When i call /mydtmlmethod, i wish that it is called in the context of 
/SpecialTemplate/NormalTemplate withot redirecting url. I was thinking that 
to do this, i needed to modify bobo_traverse, or something like that. Cause 
this is what the Mirrowing Folder does. But now that ive seen your localizer 
i realized that maybe i could use the Mirrowing Folder *and* SiteAccess to do 
what i want to do.

Hope you understand a little better this time (im not so good writing 
english).
