RE: [Zope] how to include Flash/SWF objects in Zope website?
by Bob Corriher 16 Oct '00

16 Oct '00

Hi Fred, We use Flash in most of the sites we develop with Zope. We just upload the swf file into a File object and call it from the index_html method as follows: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>splashpage</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF">   <CENTER> <OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0" ID=splashpage WIDTH=550 HEIGHT=400> <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="splashpage.swf"> <PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="splashpage.swf" loop=false quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH=550 HEIGHT=400 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=Shoc…"></EMBED> </OBJECT> </CENTER> </BODY> </HTML> The File object is named splaspage.swf, but the extension is not necessary. It could have been called splashpage or anything else. Hope this helps. Bob Corriher P-Wave Inc.

Need help with date comparisons
by Jonathan Cheyne 16 Oct '00

16 Oct '00

Hi all again. I have a blank in my mind where I hoped the answer might be to this probably straightforward exercise. I have a zclass containing a date property called event_date. I want a page that loops through the months of the year, starting with the current month, and in each loop displays all the instances from the catalog with an event_date within the month in question. I just get stuck, completely stuck, trying to get the month value from the event_date and to compare it with the current month value. Anyone done this or something like this? Is this hard or am I a bit, you know, dense? thanks Jonathan

NEWBIE: assign next free ID automatically
by Patrick Koetter 16 Oct '00

16 Oct '00

Hi, I've been through the Guides, How-Tos and also some of the list-archives. Though I am not a programmer I finally decided to ask that question to all of you... I want to give Users the possibility to add documents in a folder <things_to_do> ;-). so far so good ... Then I want to control the IDs simply by assigning an ID to their Form. I found a few articles generating either randomIDs or calculating IDs from ZopeTime(). What is it that I want to do? I want to evaluate the highest ID (all are 'int') within the folder and assign the next highest. I'm sure this is easy to you... If there's a RTFM-document I'd be glad to read that. thanks, p@rick

List from another list in DTML?
by Alexander Chelnokov 16 Oct '00

16 Oct '00

Hello All, A form contains data items ['firstname','secondname','dofb' etc] and some "service" fields ['submit','sid','form','nform']. With REQUEST.form.items() all these fields are included in a single list. How can another list be created from the list which contains only data fields? Is it possible with DTML only? -- Best regards, Alexander N. Chelnokov Ural Scientific Institute of Traumatology and Orthopaedics 7, Bankovsky str. Ekaterinburg 620014 Russia ICQ: 25640913

trouble compiling DCOracle
by Erik Myllymaki 14 Oct '00

I'm having some trouble compiling DCOracle on my RedHat 6.1 machine. I am using the latest DCOracle 1.3.2 and python 1.5.2. I used the included Setup-8.1.5 file with the addition of one library to the *ORACLE_Includes* list: -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/public The output from *make* had a number of errors, but compiled the shared objects: gcc -fPIC -I/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/demo -I/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/public -I/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/public -I/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/plsql/public -DDCORACLE8 -g -O2 -I/usr/include/python1.5 -I/usr/include/python1.5 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c ./oci_.c In file included from ./oci_.c:566: Buffer.h:79: warning: static declaration for `PyImport_Import' follows non-static ./oci_.c: In function `_wrap_odescr': ./oci_.c:2599: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type gcc -shared oci_.o -L/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib/ -L/oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib /oradisk01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/defopt.o -o oci_.so gcc -fPIC -g -O2 -I/usr/include/python1.5 -I/usr/include/python1.5 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c ./Buffer.c In file included from ./Buffer.c:60: Buffer.h:79: warning: static declaration for `PyImport_Import' follows non-static gcc -shared Buffer.o -o Buffer.so Testing the created shared object files went something like this: [sweetrig@shamalama src]# python DCOracle_test.py Traceback (innermost last): File "DCOracle_test.py", line 1, in ? import Buffer, oci_, sys ImportError: libclntsh.so.8.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have tried a number of setup files that were on this list for Oracle 8.1.6 and all have produced errors. Any help appreciated. -- Erik Myllymaki erik(a)pacific-shores.com
