tell-a-friend product?

Hi, I am still new to zope and am wondering if there is a tell-a-friend script/product/example floating around for me to look at? If not, and I made my own form with Zope (which I have not done yet), what variable would call the existing page the user was on ? Thanks in advance. --Sean

It's an object, isn't it? Perhaps you should use a tool like tcpdump to do a raw dump of the tcp-data which is sent. Or just look at the http-headers with a tool like samspade (http://www.samspade.org/ssw/) Perhaps there is a problem with them (differing content-length?) - maybe triggering a bug in IE. cheers, oliver

Re: [Zope] DTML Method not working

It was in the standard public interface index_html that is a DTML method. > > Is it in a DTML Method being called from a DTML Document? No, the standard_html_header calls the method. Actually, I just copied the code/instructions from the Zope Book (http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/) Incidentally, once I put your <dtml-with ... modification, it worked just fine. Thanks! This however, begs (a newbie's) question as to how to get a listing of the current folder's contents. I.e., using a DTML Method (such as the stadard index_html), what changes to the code that you provided would look up the current container's (folder) objects? Wouldn't you use something like PARENT, i.e., the parent object of the DTML method that is used to render the web page? Or would you simply modify the I'm going to suggest to the author of the upcoming Zope book to add a little of your explanation here, as it would be very instructive. You helped. Thanks very much.

Displaying zope content on other websites using XML
by blueeye 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

Hi, Can we display zope content on other web sites via xml or some kind of a script? What I had in mind was something on the lines of moreover news (www.moreover.com) that syndicates its content to other web sites. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks. ___________________________________________________ GO.com Mail Get Your Free, Private E-mail at http://mail.go.com

RE: [Zope] Access Control vs Publishing Protocol
by Toby Dickenson 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

> It seems like this can be handled rather well by simply > adding a 'XML-RPC access', a 'SOAP access' and a 'WebDAV > access' set of permissions. we already have a 'FTP access' > permission which works fine. Not quite..... That permission controls several methods that are particularly useful for FTP (indeed, you cant do FTP without them). However you could also call those methods using xml-rpc, soap, or ZPublisher (or, not, depending on the whether you have the 'FTP access' permission). Your suggestion makes sense for WebDAV which, like FTP, only uses a small set of methods. I dont think its appropriate for a more flexible protocol like xml-rpc, soap, or ZPublisher.

Hi, Kent Sin dpkg -S tells you what package contains a file: jwashin@vpave5:/$ dpkg -S mymath.h python-dev: /usr/include/python1.5/mymath.h So, it would appear the python-dev package is the one you need. -- Jim Washington Sin Hang Kin wrote: > > When building current zope cvs, cPickle.c want the mymath.h.

cookies don't obey me
by Roland Reumerman 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

I've been experiencing two problems with cookies from Zope: 1) When I set a cookie with the path set to the root <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setCookie('account',AUTHENTICATED_USER,path='/')"> I'm still not able to click through to another hyperlink once I'm logged in, i.e., I've used www.ddi.nl/support to go the password protected Zope site, logged in as a customer, and from there I can choose other parts of the site (below .../support/). However, www.ddi.nl is an alias of www.datadistilleries.com (the actual name): as a result it asks me for the password again. I thought setting the path to '/' would convince Zope I'm authorized, but apparently it's not the case. 2) This might be related to 1. I've created a logout link on the .../support/index_html page, which looks as follows: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.expireCookie('account',path='/')"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.datadistilleries.com/support.html?section=m6&envelope=6')"> However, once I've been redirected I can still access the password protected .../support/ site without Zope asking me for a login name. Now, I'm not 'cookie guru', so please don't tell me how stupid it is of me that I didn't think of this or that to make it work. I did do my background research homework though! Thanks for reading this far ;-). RCR _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Re: [Zope] Animated GIFs

Sorry, forgot the html quoting in my last posting... Should work now.

Any help is appreciated!!! I tried your suggestion. The animGif works fine with every kind of HTML. I really think it's a Zope problem. Also the gif downloaded from Zope works with HTML outside Zope. The following doesn't work as well: Refer to the gif situated on your Zope server from a HTML file outside Zope. - Same problem... <html> <head><title>the title</title></head> <body><img src="http://localhost:8080/animGif"></body> </html> I also tried to name the animGif explicitely animGif.gif instead of animGif - guessed what? - same problem! Any more ideas, please? Thanks.

input type="checkbox" name not pushed to zsql method namespace
by Beuserie Frédéric (stbrice dsi) 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

hi, it seems to me that the variable name corresponding to a checkbox into a form is not pushed to the namespace of the SQL query when it's not checked. if it's checked, it works fine. the error reported is related to the argument list entry corresponding to the name of the checkbox into the zsql method. thanks a lot. ----------------------------------------- Beuserie Frederic DSI / Système et Exploitation - 3 Suisses Belgique Tel: +3269/882485 / Fax: +3269/882491 Email: F.Beuserie(a)3Suisses.be
