I have just been at www.zope.org and zdp.zope.org looking for tutorials on Zcatalog and ZClasses. I looked in Documentation, and found ZClasses, but couldn't find info on ZCatalog. Where is it? Thanks Antony

Extra folder with ZCatalog
by Arnaud Lecat 26 Aug '99

26 Aug '99

I'm in ZCatalog now :) It's really cool... Well, one question - my catalog is at top - search and report in a search folder located at top When I search i make links like this <a href=""></a> The problem is that the link includes the '/search/' folder... I don't want it to appear in the link because of other methods.... Ex: http://mysite:1234/search/services/design should be http://mysite:1234/services/design How to do that ? :) Bye -- >> WinErr: 080 Clavier introuvable - Veuillez appuyer sur n'importe quelle touche pour continuer. << Arnaud LECAT >> Email: lecat(a)hexanet.fr >> WWW page:www.hexanet.fr/~lecat HEXANET >> http://www.hexanet.fr Z.A.

editing content-type text/css?
by Ethan Fremen 26 Aug '99

26 Aug '99

zopes, I imported my stylesheet that is called with the <link> tag in all my documents. I intend to continue doing this, as AFAIK the browser can download one instance of the css document and use it for all further documents that refer to it. This is opposed to what I see at some Zoped sites, where style is an object that's included as a <STYLE > tag. I'd like to avoid this because it requires that the CSS be downloaded with each page. Anyway, why doesn't zope (v.2.0.0b5) let me edit the text of the CSS file? thanks, ~mindlace

works under 1.10.3 not under 2.0.0b5 (resend)
by Joachim Schmitz 26 Aug '99

26 Aug '99

hi, I sent this yesterday, does nobody have an idea, what's wrong ? I have a ZSQL-method insert in my root folder like this: insert into  (  ,  ) <snipp> also in my root-folder is a dtml-document which calls insert(REQUEST) this is my folder-structure: root insert (ZSQL-method) bearbeiten (dtml-document) kultur kino Event EinAusgabe (TinyTable) when I now call root/kultur/kino/Event/bearbeiten under 1.10.3 that correctly inserts my record. under 2.0.0b5 I get a keyerror EinAusgabe from the insert-method, I think it has something to do with difference of dtml-documents versus dtml-methods. But how do I treat a ZSQL-method as an ZSQL-document ? Gruß Joachim Schmitz WWW-Consultant email: js(a)ac-copy.net tel: +49-241-89491-0 fax: +49-241-89491-29

Or those of us running more "enlightened" mail systems (like Postfix), there's no way for the program answering the SMTP port to know this information. I'd say the following would be an acceptable validation: * Verify that it has an '@' in it (! and % are VERY rare any more) * Verify that the TLD is valid (this requires a listing of all ISO country codes, plus org,net,com,int) This at least makes sure that it's somewhat "well formed" and captures 99% of the cases correctly.

Re: [Zope] DTML syntax

In the meantime, I believe the KM news author is working >with ZClasses, perhaps she/he can relate the experience? I'm that KM news guy... This is a good subject for a how-to. My original suggestion was to just use the Catalog Find command, because this is a very easy way to get started. However, it would take more effort to convert those File objects to a CatalogAware ZClass later, so maybe starting out with a ZClass is the way to go. Unless you think that 2.1 or 2.2 will feature CatalogAware File objects. Here is some fodder for the how-to (let me know if any of it is wrong, because I'd love if some of these things were more automatic :) Creating a CatalogAware ZClass With relatively little effort, a ZClass can be set up to automatically add, delete and update itself from a Catalog. This is a very powerful feature because it allows the user to easily search your content and allows you to produce different views of your objects. This document expects a basic knowledge of ZClasses and describes the additional actions necessary to make a fully-CatalogAware ZClass. Constructing the ZClass When creating the ZClass, you need to select CatalogAware as the *first* base class. So, if you are creating a folderish ZClass, you would select CatalogAware first, and then select ObjectManager. Adding Objects to the Catalog Once you have inherited from CatalogAware, new objects will automatically be added to the Catalog. However, it is not uncommon to modify properties from within your ZClass_add method in the section::   You can ad code that modifies the new instance here. For example, if you have a property sheet that you want to update from form values, you can call it here:    If you do modify the properties, you'll need to reindex the object so that the changes show up in the Catalog. Your code would look something like this::   <dtml-call reindex_object>  Changing the Objects If you use a standard propertysheet management screen, your changes do not get automatically propogated to the Catalog. You'll need to create your own editing method which changes the properties and then calls reindex_object. Deleting the Objects You don't need to do anything special to have your objects removed from the Catalog upon deletion. That's It! Any properties that your ZClass instances have will automatically show up in the Catalog, and the Catalog will stay up to date with changes! Kevin
