Rank newbie question

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello- This is probably a silly, easily answered question, but I'll be darned if I can figure it out (although, admittedly, I'm pressed for time due to other projects, so I haven't *really* tried...). I would like to setup the index_html in the 'root' folder of the Zope server such that it automagically generates a nav bar with links to all of the subfolders. That way, if I have to add or remove subfolders (representing departments within the division), I don't have to modify any links manually. So, basically, the way I see it, is that the index_html would have to have a method that globs the IDs of the subfolders, then iterates through them, generating links on the fly. How would one accomplish this? (Assuming, of course, that it is feasible). Many thanks! - -- John R.

(or better i can setup the example on one of ours machines and let you peek at the code...) ciao, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE System Programmer fog(a)mixadlive.com Debian GNU/Linux Developer & Italian Press Contact fog(a)debian.org Best friends are often failed lovers. -- Me

Hi everybody. Here is a problem: I have a dictionary variable named D and a key (in D) named K. I know I can do the following: <dtml-var "D['K']"> and so on, but how can I change the value of D['K'] in a dtml tag ( something like <dtml-call "D['K']=value">)?

Zclass and subobjects
by Brown Fox 05 May '00

05 May '00

Hello, i create a zclass with the objectmanager base class selected. Then as subobjects i select image and folder. When i instance it i see that i can add only folders and images, but if i create a folder i can add whatever object i want in it. Why? My idea was that also in that folder the only objects i can add are image and folder... Thanks, Bruno ______________________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

adding database records programitically
by Andy Pahne 05 May '00

05 May '00

hi, there, i have a few folders lying around in zope, and each of these folders contains a set of dtml-methods. each of the folders represents a page inside the website we are hosting. the dtml-methods hold the content for the pages. this kind of setup worked nice for a long time, but now there are too much folders, too much methods to maintain, and I am planning to move the contents into the database. I want to avoid typing all the data in again, because that has been done already. I tried this: <dtml-in "objectValues(['Folder'])"> <dtml-with "_['sequence-item']"> <dtml-call "a_sql_method_to_add_the_thing_into_the_database"> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> but this approach did not work for me. if i use <dtml-with nameOfFolder>, everything works fine, but iterating over the folders and using <dtml-with "_[sequence-item']"> did not.

Invalid Date-Time String in ODBC
by Ali Baitam 05 May '00

05 May '00

I have an Access table with a date/time field. The field had date and time info (12/4/1999 14:00AM). I made an SQL Method on this table (through ODBC connection) but the test returned "Invalid Date-Time String". I removed the time portion in all the records but the error persisted. Any idea? ali
