[Zope] dtml-in format

[Ben Bush]

How do I address each item in the list? Can you give me an example if I 
were to return a list of integers and a dicitionary list.

Here is what I would be interested in knowing ->

Return [0,1,2,3]

Can I get a way with returning dictionaries inside of a list?
Return [{'field1':'value1'},{'field2':'value2'}]

Now for the part that is killing me. How do I address the values in the 
<dtml-in script> tags. If I use <dtml-in zsql_method> it works just fine 
for me by allowing me to address each field by name  (ie. <dtml-var 
description> if there was a description field in the database) How do I 
do that with the above examples.

Thanks for your help.
