When stepping through the regression test in pdb, it appears we have bunk data in our searchList: (Pdb) print self._CHEETAH__searchList [{}, <DynamicallyCompiledCheetahTemplate.DynamicallyCompiledCheetahTemplate object at 0x9c6050> ;, {'request': 'foobar', 'escape': <function escape at 0x810d70>}] (Pdb) Yet for some reason `escape` will be properly looked up in the searchList, but `request` will not: (Pdb) VFFSL(self._CHEETAH__searchList,"request",True) (Pdb) print VFFSL(self._CHEETAH__searchList,"request",True) None (Pdb) print VFFSL(self._CHEETAH__searchList,"escape",True) *** TypeError: escape() takes at least 1 argument (0 given) Odd.

How the searchList works is by building a list of "namespaces", these namespaces are by default: keyword arguments to the `respond` method Members of the `Template` object (i.e. `self`) `searchList` parameters passed in through the Template __init__() `searchList` keyword arg The members on the Template object (i.e. `self`) are: ['NonNumericInputError', '_CHEETAH__cacheRegions', '_CHEETAH__cacheStore', '_CHEETAH__cheetahInclude s', '_CHEETAH__currentFilter', '_CHEETAH__errorCatcher', '_CHEETAH__errorCatchers', '_CHEETAH__filte rs', '_CHEETAH__filtersLib', '_CHEETAH__globalSetVars', '_CHEETAH__indenter', '_CHEETAH__initErrorCa tcher', '_CHEETAH__initialFilter', '_CHEETAH__instanceInitialized', '_CHEETAH__isBuffering', '_CHEET AH__isControlledByWebKit', '_CHEETAH__searchList', '_CHEETAH_cacheCompilationResults', '_CHEETAH_cac heDirForModuleFiles', '_CHEETAH_cacheModuleFilesForTracebacks', '_CHEETAH_cacheRegionClass', '_CHEET AH_cacheStore', '_CHEETAH_cacheStoreClass', '_CHEETAH_cacheStoreIdPrefix', '_CHEETAH_compileCache', '_CHEETAH_compileLock', '_CHEETAH_compilerClass', '_CHEETAH_compilerSettings', '_CHEETAH_defaultBase classForTemplates', '_CHEETAH_defaultClassNameForTemplates', '_CHEETAH_defaultMainMethodName', '_CHE ETAH_defaultMainMethodNameForTemplates', '_CHEETAH_defaultModuleGlobalsForTemplates', '_CHEETAH_defa ultModuleNameForTemplates', '_CHEETAH_defaultPreprocessorClass', '_CHEETAH_genTime', '_CHEETAH_genTi mestamp', '_CHEETAH_generatedModuleCode', '_CHEETAH_isInCompilationCache', '_CHEETAH_keepRefToGenera tedCode', '_CHEETAH_preprocessors', '_CHEETAH_requiredCheetahClassAttributes', '_CHEETAH_requiredChe etahClassMethods', '_CHEETAH_requiredCheetahMethods', '_CHEETAH_src', '_CHEETAH_srcLastModified', '_ CHEETAH_useCompilationCache', '_CHEETAH_version', '_CHEETAH_versionTuple', '__class__', '__delattr__ ', '__dict__', '__doc__', '__format__', '__getattribute__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__module__', '_ _new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subcl asshook__', '__weakref__', '_addCheetahPlumbingCodeToClass', '_compile', '_createCacheRegion', '_fil eBaseName', '_fileDirName', '_fileMtime', '_filePath', '_getCacheStore', '_getCacheStoreIdPrefix', ' _getCompilerClass', '_getCompilerSettings', '_getTemplateAPIClassForIncludeDirectiveCompilation', '_ handleCheetahInclude', '_initCheetahInstance', '_mainCheetahMethod_for_DynamicallyCompiledCheetahTem plate', '_normalizePreprocessorArg', '_normalizePreprocessorSettings', '_preprocessSource', '_reusab le', '_threadSafe', '_updateSettingsWithPreprocessTokens', 'application', 'awake', 'compile', 'error Catcher', 'generatedClassCode', 'generatedModuleCode', 'getCacheRegion', 'getCacheRegions', 'getFile Contents', 'getVar', 'hasVar', 'i18n', 'refreshCache', 'request', 'respond', 'runAsMainProgram', 'se archList', 'serverSidePath', 'session', 'shutdown', 'sleep', 'subclass', 'transaction', 'varExists', 'webInput'] And since `self` takes precedence in the searchList, the NameMapper is finding `request` on the Template object, which just so happens to be None, and is passing that into your `escape` function. What I plan on doing is placing warnings about using "reserved" keys in the searchList, but also add an compile-time option "*prioritizeSearchListOverSelf" that will allow you to pass in items like "request" since the NameMapper will search the searchList before* self.
