No - some neighbors on our colo misclaimed our addresses. I'll let someone who knows the situation better fill in the details, but we seem to be back.

how to add a DTML Page to a specific folder
by IDEA WS 27 May '00

27 May '00

Here is a script that adds a new DTML page with a name from the form input field and generates a new folder with 'NewFolder' id and title. Could anybody suggest me how to add a new DTML Documentt this way (with a form) but to a specific, already existing folder. Or how to create a folder and a document placed in there with the same form, making it possible to specify the titles, but automatically generate different default ids for these objects. ---------------------------------------------        <FORM>New Page: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="NewPage"><BR> <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="AddPage" VALUE="Add page"></FORM>  --------------------------------------------- Thanx Lena

I searched all over www.python.org but could not find anything on Python-dev. I am not using RPMs, I just download source directly from www.python.org. regards, Hung Jung ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

SV: [Zope] HTML EDITORS

Homesite 4.5.1 is very recommended one one very good reason and that is that you can in detail define <dtml-taggs> their color and closing tag. For example: You can specify that <dtml-if ....> ends with a </dtml-if> You can of course also specify how to color code different tags to seperate DTML from HTML -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Fran: Luis Cortes [SMTP:lcortes@pollak.com] Skickat: den 27 maj 2000 05:14 Till: zope(a)zope.org Amne: [Zope] HTML EDITORS Hello, Has anyone found a really good HTML EDITOR that plays nice with dtml tags? Do anybody have anything they can really recommend? Thanks for the advice, Luis. _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Someone has mentioned that Digital Creations has taken on someone who is to implement a zope-based virtual learning environment tool kit. Is this so? Any mailing lists or contacts or test areas?

subfolder wrong absolute_url
by Alexandre Ratti 27 May '00

Hello, I recollect a "ZMirror" product that was used to "create a filesystem static html mirror of a zope site". <http://www.zope.org/Members/rossl/ZMirror> I downloaded a copy back in September. I don't know if it works with the present Zope versions, though. A static snapshot export option within the Zope admin UI would be great. It could be used with ZScheduler to schedule static backups/archives. Cheers.

Re: [Zope] Use of lambda expression in DTML

I thought this was a built-in python method, so I'm a bit puzzled. For security reasons, Zope are removed all builtin-functions from DTML expressions. You can access some of the builtin objects as attributes/methods the special variable "_". Look in the DTML reference (e.g. at URL:http://zdp.zope.org) for a list of available builtins in "_".

Luis Cortes has told you, how you could do your job. Explanation: Python distinguishes between expressions which can be "eval"ed and commands which can be "exec"ed. Assignments are commands, as are definitions, if, for, while constructs. Zope uses "eval" to evaluate expressions in DTML-tags. "eval" raises a SyntaxError when confronted with a command. Dieter

Higher Education Wiki or mailinglist

I'd be very interested in a Zope-in-education Wiki. I work in an educational institution, and I am very excited about it's potential, but don't know enough yet to go around reinventing the wheel, so to speak.. Could someone post an announcement when/if this happens? Thank you! Chris Beaumont cbeaumon(a)msri.org > > Shane, > > Thanks for the reply.
