webdav + zope
by John Glossner 05 Oct '99

05 Oct '99

A webdav newbie question: I would like to find out how to use Zope and webdav. I read somewhere (I think on the old site) that zope includes built-in webdav support. I have a directory of files I would like to make read/writable /home/myfiles I want to make these remotely editable using webdav. How do I get zope to allow me to view this directory? How do I code the client html to access access it? Thanks, John

Change a ZClass's instance's image
by Kam Cheung 05 Oct '99

05 Oct '99

I created a ZClass, let's call it "TestZClass". It's a very simple ZClass -- it has an image and an index_html method. TestZClass TestImage index_html In the TestZClass_add constructor, I put in a code fragment like this: <dtml-with "TestZClass.createInObjectManager(REQUEST['id'], REQUEST)"> <dtml-call "TestImage.manage_upload(REQUEST['uploadImage'])"> </dtml-with> In the TestZClass_addForm HTML, I have: <form action="TestZClass_add" METHOD="post" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <table> <tr> <th>Id:</th> <td><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="id" SIZE="40"></td> </tr> <tr> <th>Image:</th> <td><INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="uploadImage" SIZE="25"></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE=" Add "></td> </tr> </table> </form> What I want to do is, when the addForm HTML is called, one can upload an image and create an instance of TestZClass that overides the default TestImage in the original Class. It does override the original TestImage, but if one make another instance of TestZClass, the TestImage of all the other instances will be changed to the latest uploaded image. For example, if I create an instance of TestZClass, call it Instance1 and upload an image Image1. Instance1' TestImage will become Image1. However, if I create another instance of TestZClass, let's call it Instance2 and upload Image2, then not only Instance2's TestImage will become Image2, but Instance1's TestImage will also be changed to Image2!!! When I go back to check the TestZClass, it's very clear to me that, the TestZClass constructor change the TestImage on the ZClass, not on the instance. Anyone know how I can force it to change the TestImage in the instance, not the ZClass? Kam

Re: [Zope] contrasting Zope vs. Vignette

Well, I know quite a few people at Vignette (they're in my home town), and interesting had a 3 hour discussion with one of their larger customers when I was flying back from SFO this weekend... o Performance in NON-cache mode o Real personalization issues (I was told they have little more than a rough framework that pales compared to ZClasses even) o Cost :-) I know for a fact that only one or two people have ever bought Vignette without a lot of consulting. Average deployment is around $500K-1M and a first strike is $150-200K. o Flexibility. There's nothing anywhere near acquisition in Vignette, and not even close. o Delegation of authority (a'la our security model). o Security Model. They didn't want to talk about it when I asked them at one of their presentations. This scares me.

RE: [Zope] Using Dreamweaver with zope..

Hi, I just dug up this documentation on the Macromedia website that could be interesting for anyone using Dreamweaver together with Zope: http://www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/extend/dream2extend.html I also have plans to explore the possibility to integrate Dreamweaver publishing with Zope publishing. Anyone interested in joining my effort may contact me at johanc(a)torped.se or check out http://www.zope.org/Members/johanc. Best Regards, Johan Carlsson

Hello all - was just talking with a friend interested in "AXSL" (http://www.javalobby.org/axsl.html) which can be used for format XML data from a database. Any ideas about how we could implement something like this into Zope? Check it out. Eron.

my intro to zope talk for Linux Users Victoria...

The intro talk I gave to the local Linux users group tonight is available on the web at www.zope.org/Members/anthony/talks/luv/ Feel free to steal bits (steal? of course I meant "research") if it's useful for anyone. I don't _think_ there's any goofs in there - it's just bullet points. Anthony
