Cloning objects to a ZClass instance
by Joachim Werner 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

I'd like to repeat a question to the list that seems to be more complicated than I thought: What I want to do is have a template folder with default images etc. in a container ZCLass. The item ZClasses in the container (e.g. preconfigured member homepages of a portal site) should not just be able to use the templates by aquisition, but the template folder should be physically copied to the ZClass instances at creation time so that the template content can be easily customized within the instance. I tried manage_clone and other ways, but with no success so far. It must work in principle because I can do simple copy&paste in the management interface, and I guess everything that can be done there can be done programmatically, too ... Any hints?

WAP, WBMP and PIL
by Duncan Booth 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

Those people using Zope to do WAP related things may be interested to know that I have written a WBMP plugin for PIL so it should now be possible to manipulate WBMP images from within Zope. See http://www.zope.org/Members/Duncan/WbmpImagePlugin.py for just the PIL plugin, or http://www.rcp.co.uk/distributed/Downloads for the file wbmpconvsrc.zip which includes the above plugin and also a script for converting files to/from wbmp format. -- Duncan Booth duncan(a)dales.rmplc.co.uk int month(char *p){return(124864/((p[0]+p[1]-p[2]&0x1f)+1)%12)["\5\x8\3" "\6\7\xb\1\x9\xa\2\0\4"];} // Who said my code was obscure? http://dales.rmplc.co.uk/Duncan

DTML-TREE
by Tom Deprez 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

When using the DTML-IN tag you can use DTML-ELSE when no objects to the expression are found. Is there also something with the DTML-TREE tag? ie. How do you know if DTML-TREE has no objects fullfilling to the braches_expr and thus returns no tree? Tom

Hello, i have a lot of doubts about users login: i want to add a privilege field (integer) to every user of my system and then check if they can access single files checking it. How i can add this type of extra informations to the user record (i'm using the default user folder)? And how i can change this information without entering the manage mode of zope? Thanks!

Best way to order objects in folder?
by Alexander Schonfeld 19 Apr '00

19 Apr '00

What is the best way to specify an order to objects? It always seems to come down to making a token/list property with object ids. But this is annoying since I have to change two places if the id changes... and it breaks the site if I forget. Maybe a folder which assigns #s to its objects and allows re-arranging? Any people doing similar stuff? Any ideas? Thanks, Alex. 1010011010 0 Digital Garage 1 Alex Schonfeld 0 alex(a)garage.co.jp - pear 1 090-4429-2323
