all DTML Methods of current folder and subfolder
by Wolfgang Klinger 21 Jul '00

21 Jul '00

Hi! I have a dtml method in a folder which should display all "document_title"s of all "DTML Method"s in the current folder and all sub folders! (should work as navigation frame) How can I do that? I tried <dtml-in "Info.objectValues(['DTML Method'])"> where "Info" is the current folder where the method itself is stored but that didn't work ... :-( any suggestions? tia Wolfgang

Is there a function which evaluate a python expression situated in a string variable ?
by Frederic QUIN 21 Jul '00

21 Jul '00

Hi all, I have a string variable "expres" which contains a python expression. I would like to do <dtml-call "expres.manage_addFolder('new_folder')"> but Zope raises an error. expres is considered as a string and is not interpreted by Zope. So I wonder if there is a function which evaluate the python expression situated in my string variable... Thanks Frederic

a very simple question

Sorry for this question, but I want to understand a DTML example which is in the DTML.pdf The sendmail example oblige to put the different variables on : - the variables subject and body are supplied from the FeedbackForm - the variables support and feedback are supplied from Folder properties I don't understand why (the different variables may be defined on the Feedbacksend dtml document no ???) Another problem is : on my feedback Form I can change the subject and object value, but, when I add an input to change the support value, the parameter on the line command is change, but the mail is send on the default adress. The example : <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-sendmail smtphost="gator.digicool.com"> To: Product Support <<dtml-var support>> From: Web Feedback Form <<dtml-var feedback>> Subject: <dtml-var subject> <dtml-var body> </dtml-sendmail> Thank you for your input! <dtml-var standard_html_footer> Figure 14. A sample document that uses the dtml-sendmail tag <dtml-var standard_html_header> <H2>We want your input!</H2> <form action=SendFeedback> Destination : <input type=text name=support size=40> <br> Subject: <input type=text name=subject size=40> <br> <textarea name=body rows=10 cols=50> </textarea><br> <input type=submit value="Send Feedback"> </form> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> Figure 15. A feedback form that collects a subject and body from a user and submits them to the SendFeedback document shown in figure 14. Excuse me for my English, but I'm a little french developper without any experience ....

Re: [Zope] Broken products in 2.2 - bug?

Try the following: delete the products (okay start with a single one, just to try) from "ControlPanel/Products" (this of cause will be possible). restart Zope: look at ControlPanel/Products. Maybe, you now have a broken product with a traceback telling you the problem cause. By magic, Zope retains products in some cases when there is a problem during import without showing any indication of the problem (someone told in the list, that something is written to a log file, if logging is enabled). By removing the product manually, I hope Zope will show you the problem. If my proposal works indeed, then this product retaining behaviour is more a bug than a feature. Dieter

ZCatalog & dynamic sites
by Δημήτρης Ανδρακάκης 21 Jul '00

21 Jul '00

Hi all, I have a Zope site that uses MySQL to dynamically create some pages. What I want is the ability to search throughout the site, INCLUDING the pages that are database-driven. It seems to me that ZCatalog only finds items that exist *in zope*. Is it something ZCatalog can't do or am I missing anything obvious ? -- Dimitris http://atlas.central.ntua.gr:8000/~mc94068

What I had done was inadvertently run the make -f before I had edited the Setup.in file. I then edited the file as I should have and re-ran make -f without realising I had to delete the file called "Setup". Ignorance is a curse. Anyway, this little tip will no doubt help someone else in the future. David Trudgett

gvib InterBase DA, undefined symbol crypt
by David Trudgett 21 Jul '00

21 Jul '00

Hi all, After having successfully installed the gvib InterBase DA on a test machine running Red Hat Linux 6.1, I'm not having the same luck on the production box running RH 6.0. Here's what happens: $ python >>> import gvib Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/usr/local/Zope-2.1.6/lib/python/Products/gvibDA/gvib/gvib.py", line 46, in ? import gvibBase ImportError: /usr/lib/libgds.so: undefined symbol: crypt I've tried mucking around with updating libraries and so on, but so far without success. No doubt this problem has happened to someone else before, so is there anyone here who can suggest how I might fix this? (By the way, the compile went through without a problem, and there was a -lcrypt on the appropriate Setup.in line). I've also emailed the author of the package, but I thought it's probably more likely a generic setup problem, rather than anything to do with the product itself. Thanks. David Trudgett
