[Chameleon] Zend WinEnabler

[Paul Dymecki]

Hello,
   I have a general question about chameleon's use of sessions.  I am trying
to gain access to the session object, in particular to create a new query
and am having no luck with accessing it from my widget is there a security
feature that disallows this?
thx,
Paul
