My folder at root lists Control Panel QuickStart ZAcme acl users standard error message standard html footer standard html header Opening ZAcme does list News, Products, Research That does not agree with the tutorial layout. Maybe that is not significant so I proceed with Add Image. Now, pray tell, where is that .gif file. Thanks, Bill Barnes

re: [Zope] Another DateTime Strangeness

Shane Hathaway did a line-by-line audit on DateTime.py, and fixed loads of timezone and rounding bugs. The fixed version is available in CVS and in Zope 2.2.x. There was also a copy of it on Shane's page at www.zope.org, but it is gone now. If you get stuck, mail me privately and I'll send you the fixed version. You're better off getting it from a copy of Zope 2.2, if you can. -- Steve Alexander Software Engineer Cat-Box limited http://www.cat-box.net

You can put your linefeeds inside the HTML and DTML elements: <h2>This is a really long heading with a <dtml-var foo > dtml variable in it</h2> See http://www.cat-box.net/helen/notes.html#source_layout_notes for more information about these issues. -- Steve Alexander Software Engineer Cat-Box limited http://www.cat-box.net

wrong day behaviour
by Marco Mariani 09 Jul '00

09 Jul '00

Why is Zope costantly reporting the day before the one I suppose it should? This is my method: ==================== <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-if "REQUEST.get('SUBMIT')=='Add'"> <dtml-call "elenco.manage_addDTMLDocument(_.str(seqnum),'','')"> <dtml-with "elenco[_.str(seqnum)]"> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('seqnum','0','int')"> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('citta','','string')"> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('data','2000/01/01','date')"> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('indirizzo','','string')"> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('desc','[]','lines')"> </dtml-with> <dtml-call "elenco.manage_changeProperties(seqnext=REQUEST.form['seqnum']+1)"> </dtml-if> <dtml-if "REQUEST.get('SUBMIT') in ['Change','Add']"> <dtml-call "elenco[_.str(seqnum)].manage_changeProperties(REQUEST.form)"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('index_html')"> </dtml-if> <FORM METHOD=POST> <TABLE> <INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="seqnum:int" VALUE="<dtml-var "elenco.getProperty('seqnext')">"> <TR><TH ALIGN=LEFT>Citta':</TH><TH ALIGN=LEFT>Data:</TH></TR> <TR><TD> <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="citta"> </TD><TD> <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="data:date" VALUE="2000/01/01"> </TD></TR> <TR><TH ALIGN=LEFT>Indirizzo:</TH><TH ALIGN=LEFT>Descrizione:</TH></TR> <TR VALIGN=TOP><TD> <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="indirizzo"> </TD><TD> <TEXTAREA ROWS=10 COLS=30 NAME="desc:lines"></TEXTAREA> </TD></TR> </TABLE> <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=SUBMIT VALUE="Add"> </FORM> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> ==================== Upon the creation of an object, the "data" property gets stored with the wrong day. Is it something everyone but me knows? Thank you. -- "This company has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.

XML-RPC error

Hi, After failing to use wxLoadSite, which report wxloadsite.py, line 164, in onPressCopy AttributeError: host I try to test it by hand, I start up python and >>> zs = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost:8080',username='kentsin',password='passwo rd') >>> t = zs.objectIds() Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "wxLoadSite\xmlrpclib.py", line 550, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "wxLoadSite\xmlrpclib.py", line 644, in __request request File "wxLoadSite\xmlrpclib.py", line 596, in request headers wxLoadSite.xmlrpclib.ProtocolError: <ProtocolError for localhost:8080/RPC2: 500 Internal Server Error> I am using Win32 zope 2.2b1 on the same win98. The xmlrpc client is using the same python with the binary zope. (I have the zope1.5.2 install in same box). Can anyone help me with these? Moreover, it seems that it is not using the BasicAuthTransport which is mentationed in articles in xml.com, are there some changes in the xmlrpc code?

Python Install (NT)
by J. Michael Mc Kay 09 Jul '00

09 Jul '00

I'm trying to determine how the python installation works. The Web Server I use is Oreilly's Website Pro. Python is included with website and installs to a direcory that you choose during setup. So this is one instance of Python to serve Web Site on port 80. Zope has it's own python installation A second instance of Zope has another python. Do the multiple python installations work together? I could only find one Python Service entry for Zope, although two instances are running.

cr/lf causing spaces
by Nils Jeppe 09 Jul '00

09 Jul '00

Hello Folks, One of my "favorite" issues with win/DOS has always been its use of CR+LF combinations. Why? Because all browsers interpret the thing as a SPACE. Would it be possible for Zope (which has to parse the dtml files etc anyway) to convert cr+lf to plain cr? The problem I have currently is that if I format my dtml source nice and orderly, I end up having spaces in my Output where I don't want any... Or is there already a way to avoid this? Best wishes, Nils

KeyError Sorry, a Zope error occurred. and when I view the source, I got this :  Is this cause by the wrong database field name or what ??

Hello, At 20:43 08.07.2000 +0000, you wrote: >Would it be possible for Zope (which has to parse the dtml files etc >anyway) to convert cr+lf to plain cr? You might want to give a look to a product called "StructuredText Document" under http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/STX_Document. It will keep the the layout as typed without having to give any HTML. But the good thing with it is that you can add some HTML tags if needed and they will be rendered correctly in your browser. There is also a How-To about structued text ( http://www.zope.org/Members/millejoh/structuredText ) The other way to use structured-text is by telling it to Zope when you render and object with <dtml-var stx_doc_name fmt=structured-text> (taken from the how-to mentioned above). the structured-text format is one of these many cool Zope features. >The problem I have currently is that if I format my dtml source nice and >orderly, I end up having spaces in my Output where I don't want any... Other way arround would be to manually add a <BR> before every carriage return you make... but I don't think that's what you want ;-) Best regards, Gérard Métrailler Jr. Meeting Maker Inc. ... the intelligent choice for collaborative scheduling Email: webmaster(a)meetingmaker.com Web: http://www.meetingmaker.com
