Re: Visibility of objects

The expression

python: root.site.links

is a TAL expression, which in this case specifies that it uses Python
syntax, and the Python expression to evaluate is the object with the ID
"links" contained another object with ID "site" contained in something with
ID "root".  Those are just example IDs.

You can find more about TAL expressions at
http://docs.plone.org/develop/plone/functionality/expressions.html

But... you're not likely to need TAL expressions in Script (Python) objects.
