Does SiteRoot Interfere With Copy-Paste?
by Dan Shafer 13 Dec '01

13 Dec '01

I have encountered a peculiarity and I'm having trouble understanding it. I have a folder on my site called "learning" where I experiment with stuff I'm figuring out. When I get something working there, I want to copy the resulting object(s) and paste it(them) into another folder on my site. This works fine except in one of my folders. The only difference I can see between the folders where it does work and this renegade is that the folder where it doesn't work has a SiteRoot and the others don't. In this folder, the Paste button just never appears. Everywhere else on the site, it's fine. Anyone got an insight? -- Dan Shafer, Author-Consultant http://www.danshafer.com http://www.shafermedia.com

A Catalog of Zope Products?
by Dan Shafer 13 Dec '01

13 Dec '01

Over the past couple of weeks, I've read a few messages on this list along the line of: "Hey, I need to be able to do X. Anyone know how to do that?" "Yeah, use Product Y." This got me to thinking. Is there a central repository that catalogs all Zope products and provides some explanation of what they do? If there is, perhaps a prominent pointer to it on Zope.org? If not, does this seem like a useful idea? How would it be undertaken? Volunteer effort, presumably. -- Dan Shafer, Author-Consultant http://www.danshafer.com http://www.shafermedia.com

making 'printed' = ''
by Christopher N. Deckard 12 Dec '01

12 Dec '01

Is it possible to do something like this: print 'foo' print 'more foo' print 'I like foo' thing = printed printed = '' print 'bar' print 'more bar' otherthing = printed I want to do this because I want the new line at the end of each line and don't want to put "\n"'s everywhere. Is it possible to do that? Or am I just insane. Zope tells me that 'printed' is a reserved word. Thanks, -Chris -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher N.

Authentication (newbie)
by Nagy Gabor 12 Dec '01

12 Dec '01

Hi! I'm new to this list, and new to zope. What I would like to create is a website on a Linux box, that users of our intranet could access. I don't want to enter every user again, and give them new passwords, I want to use the existing windows domain's data. (We are talking about authentication, I think). I'm not sure in the setup of the roles and permissions, but it will come later. I've checked the list of possible Alternative User Folders at http://www.zope.org/Products/user_management today, and found that there are at least two products doing this same thing. Alas I don't remember their names, but I remember that the one that sounded better required the recompilation of python so that it will be able to use the smb module. Sort of. So, Two questions: -Which product do you recommend for this thing? -Isn't there a product that simply uses PAM? I saw all sort of things, but for quite a lot of them we (I) already have PAM modules. (LDAP, NT-domain, /etc/passwd, radius, mysql...). Maybe there is, I just didn't find it. (But then why do such a lot of products exist for doing the same thing again?) Bye! Gee

Solved MailHost error in Internet Explorer

hi, I posted the observation, that following code does not work with internet explorer 5.5, but with any other browser: <dtml-sendmail mailhost=MailHost> From: blabla(a)sybcom.de To: blabla(a)sybcom.de Subject: blabla blabla </dtml-sendmail> modifying as follows made it work: <dtml-sendmail mailhost=MailHost mailfrom=blabla(a)sybcom.de mailto=blabla(a)sybcom.de> From: blabla(a)sybcom.de To: blabla(a)sybcom.de Subject: blabla blabla </dtml-sendmail> and only the bits and bytes know why... it is solved anyway! --- If you care, you just get disappointed all the time.

'manage_pasteObjects()' problem
by vmilitaru＠sympatico.ca 12 Dec '01

12 Dec '01

When I execute the following python code (from within a method of an instantiated object): myClipboard = self.aq_parent.manage_cutObjects(id) destination_folder = getattr(my_root_folder,'dest') destination_folder.manage_pasteObjects(myClipboard) I get the error: 'The object <my object id> does not support this operation.' And I don't get it. I thought that by making my object inherit from 'OFS.SimpleItem.Item', I get cut&paste support. Can someone explain? What's the solution to make 'paste' functionality work? Or again, are there alternative tricks for moving objects around, besides 'manage_pasteObjects()'? Regards, Vio
