Problem rendering large table thru Zope - thru filesystem is ok
by Jim Sanford 24 May '00

24 May '00

We have a report we generate in zope that creates a large table with lots of font changes. When the total size of the file approaches 150k zope refuses to render it. We have a method that creates a copy of the report using _.render and saves it to a file. If we try to use LocalFS to access the file it does not render. The Status bar on browser says "....found. Waiting for reply" and the progress bar slowly marches accross its box - but nothing displays. If I go to the drive via our network and double click on the .html file created with _.render, it comes up in about 2 seconds. Yet If I try to access it in "view" mode in the LocalFS folder for that drive it does not display. If I click on the file in LocalFS manage mode the raw html code displays in the text box without a problem. Any ideas? Any suggestions? Any incantations? __________________________________________________________________ Jim Sanford .

seq-items and nested dtml-ins
by Aaron Payne 24 May '00

24 May '00

How do you differentiate between the seq-items of nested dtml-ins? I tried the following code: <dtml-in "instances.objectValues(['Coupon ZClass'])"> <dtml-in SearchCategory> <dtml-if "_['sequence-item']=='Auto' "> <dtml-call "resultsList.append(_['sequence-item'])"> </dtml-if> </dtml-in end SearchCategory> </dtml-in end instances> Where: instances is a folder containing the coupon instances Coupon ZClass is the meta type of the zclass SearchCategory is a list from a form resultsList is a list containing instances of Coupon ZClass matching the search criteria Auto is a property of Coupon ZClass When I try to run a search an error page pops up saying "strings aren't allowed as input in the in tag." The property Category of the zclass is the type lines. "Auto' is one of the values in Category. In <dtml-if "_['sequence-item']=='Auto' "> I am comparing the current element of SearchCategory to one of the values in Category. In <dtml-call resultsList...> I want to append the instance and not SearchCategory list. Peacefully, Aaron

Using Cookie Data
by Jim 24 May '00

24 May '00

I have a cookie that contains the value of an psql key as its value. I want to retrieve the value and use it to call the psql query method to retrieve the data. The code that I am currently using is <dtml-in qryGetCustomer(REQUEST.cookies[Company_Name)]> The company record has been retrieved for <dtml-var company_name>.<br> </dtml-in> where Company_Name is a property containing the company name and is the name of the cookie, and company_name is the first field that should be retrieved from the psql database query. When I run the code I get Error Type: KeyError Error Value: qryGetCustomer(REQUEST.cookies[Company_Name)] Any help out there on helping a Zope newbie to get the data from his psql database with a value retrieved from a cookie? -- Jim Zope is cool!

still trying to get Catalog to work in my python product
by ed colmar 24 May '00

24 May '00

Thanks to everone who has given me suggestions on this. I really do appreciate it. After looking over the PTK snapshot, I've tried to duplicate the catlog that is implemented there. I could not find any search utilities built in, so I'm assuming this is still done by adding the ZsearchInterface from the management screen. Is this right, or is there some built-in PTK searching tool? So now I have a "myproductcatalog" class which inherits ZCatalog. All it does is set up the Indexes, and columns In my base class, I initialize the catalog using (PTK code): # Install MyCatalog id = 'SiteIndex' catalog = MyCatalog(id, '') self._setObject(id, catalog) catalog = self.SiteIndex catalog.initialize() My sub-classes are all catalog aware, with reindex-object in all of the editing areas. I don't see my catalog when I go to add a Zsearch interface. Am I supposed to? What else do I need to do to make this work? -ed-
