Zwiki extension work - stuck changing new properties
by Geoff Gardiner 17 May '00

17 May '00

Sorry for a slightly lengthy post - hope this is the right list. I'm trying to extend Zwiki functionality, and have got quite a long way with what I want - basically restricting some users to append-only in certain circumstances. However, although I can create the new properties, I'm not able to access them in the edit method and I don't see what I should be doing. Other properties seem to be accessible, but not my new ones (although they are visible in the properties tab, and can be read Ok). I have tried appending 'self.' but this just comes up with an error telling me that they don't exist. The fragments below are all that I have added to the Zwiki product (see the geoffg comments below for what I've done), but I've got some additions to zwiki.zexp as well to provide forms input. Thank you again for any and all help, Geoff Gardiner In ZwikiPage.py .... class ZWikiPage(DTMLDocument): #, CatalogAware): """A ZWikiPage is a DTML Document which knows how to render itself in various wiki styles, and provides some utility methods to support wiki-building.

Ok - probably the best way to do this is to have frmAddUser include a hidden field in the form, a la: <input type="hidden" name="go_back_to" value="<dtml-var HTTP_REFERER>"> When the form is submitted, the form handler can then do the redirect to whatever the value of "go_back_to" is.

But how can I return to the second last page with a RESPONSE.redirect? If I use <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(HTTP_REFERER)"> a call will be redirected to my calling form. E.g. I want to have management screens for the users with that they can add instances of things. I have put the forms that will be used to get necessary information in a subfolder, say /Forms and ZSQL Methods in another subfolder /SQL. So this will result in the following calling sequence: .../frmAManagementScreen -> /Forms/frmAddNewUser -> /SQL/sqlAddUser After adding a user by /SQL/sqlAddUser I want to return to .../frmAManagementScreen and NOT to /Forms/frmAddNewUser. But a <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(HTTP_REFERER)"> in /SQL/sqlAddUser (which is the last in the calling sequence) will return to /Forms/frmAddUser. (.../frmAManagementScreen can have an arbitrary location within my hierarchy.) I am looking for an (elegant) way to do this.

Q: howto change HTTP_REFERER
by a.wacknitz＠francotyp.com 17 May '00

17 May '00

I want to change the value of HTTP_REFERER for a response. The Zope Quick Reference states that there is a method "set" to change a value of a variable for the RESPONSE object. But <dtml-call "RESPONSE.set('HTTP_REFERER', HTTP_REFERER)"> gives an AttributeError. BTW: I am doing this in order to redirect a response to the second last HTTP_REFERER as I have moved most of my methods to a folder beneath the top folder. Maybe there is a better way to do this? Any ideas? Andreas ********************************************************************** This email message has been swept by MIMEsweeper for the presence of computer viruses.

Maybe there is a better way to do this? I'm not sure I'm following you - the referer is generated and sent in by the _client_ in the REQUEST. You could, I guess, change it in the request object, but it would have no effect on the client - there is no way to influence directly what the client sends as referer.

RE: [Zope] ZServer port numbers under NT

I modified my Z2.py file and changed the http port number to 80. A quick restart and my site was up and running under 80. I assume you can make a similar modification for the ftp port, but haven't tried it. -=Brad=- -----Original Message----- From: Phil Harris To: texel(a)rtvc.com.cu; zope(a)zope.org Sent: 5/16/00 6:00 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] ZServer port numbers under NT Carlos, Assuming Zope is running as a service: Open regedit, navigate to and open hkey_local_machine/system/currentcontrolset/services/<zope_service_name> .
