You can either send the form to the same ACTION and then break that action up with something like:L <dtml-if radio_button1> .. or you can use some javascript. Basically, change the submit button from type=submit to type=button and make it run a javascript function. You can then, at runtime modify the ACTION of the form and then send it to the server.

In addition, the patches to fix this limitation are in the current 2.3 development tree, so it's likely that the next release of most Linux distributions won't have the limitation any longer.

>>> Greg Ward wrote > Business logic should be coded in Python, and interfaced via External > Methods. A trick that I'm pretty sure I forgot to mention - when creating external methods in the Zope mgmt interface, set their title to the argument list of the ext. method. So for def dothings(folder, foo, *bar): set the title to " folder, foo, *bar " - then, in the folder listing, you get dothings ( folder, foo, *bar ) makes it much easier to work with...

As Chas explained previously, Zope just suddenly died. > Teodore also had the same > error occur and solved it by rebooting his server. well, we use Zope on Linux combined with apache, and at least it seems to be nearly as stable as apache/php3/mysql. we might be lucky, but the real production server runs since it's up without any significant problems. that's the good news, the bad news is that this doesn't seem to be true in every environment. our intranet server (running zope) crashes about every three or four days without an obvious reason - normally not even reproducable. as our primary webserver hasn't been affected so far we believe that this behaviour might be caused be the ongoing work that's done in our intranet. so my advice is: use a separate computer as a webserver on which you only store 'things' that have been tested very well and you won't have much trouble. but: never, never, never use the production server for daily work as it seems to become more unstable with every call to standard_error_message... don't get me wrong: i like zope and working with it, and we do a lot of things these days that couldn't be done with the tools we used before, but i'm quite aware of the fact that bleeding edge technology tends to be a bit touchy. if you keep that in mind (and perhaps set your server up in a way that you get an SMS as soon as it crashes) you will have fun while working and happy customers. regards gregor --- PBM Online Services / Artis Group newmedia concepts Gregor Ottmann Leiter Softwaredesign go(a)pbm.de / ottmann(a)artis-group.com www.pbm.de / www.artis-group.com

Updating problem
by Ross Boylan 10 Dec '99

10 Dec '99

I installed the latest and greatest products, updating some existing ones. Some of the products have .zexp components. For Zwiki I moved the file under imports, and then attempted to import it I get the error shown below. I can not find an object named zwiki (as opposed to ZWiki) in my products folder, nor at the top level. A lower level folder has an item called zwiki; I do not believe it is eligible for acquisition, because it's in a separate branch. I ran into a similar problem with ZDiscussion, but in that case I was able to delete the product and then do the import. I'd appreciate any clues about this particular problem, or about the general question of how to import safely when one already has objects using earlier versions of the classes. ----------------------------- error and traceback below here------------------------------------------- The object zwiki does not support this operation Traceback (innermost last): File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 179, in publish File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 202, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 165, in publish File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 479, in manage_importObject (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /web/main/src/Zope/2.1.0b2/lib/python/OFS/CopySupport.py, line 374, in _verifyObjectPaste (Object: ElementWithAttributes) Copy Error: (see above)
