Re: new to theme modifying and need help

OK.  I came up with a solution using what was in action.AttachFile.=20
Not sure it's the best but it works.

        pagename =3D d['page_name'] # is this right?
        attach_dir =3D getAttachDir(request, pagename)
        files =3D []
        if os.path.isdir(attach_dir):
            files =3D os.listdir(attach_dir)

        add(link(request, quotedname + '?action=3DAttachFile',
                 _('Attachments', formatted=3DFalse) + " (%i)" % len(files)=
))

I also learned something new about python string interpolation.  Doh.
