Why is it that within 5 minutes after posting a notice on this list that I figure out a solution to the problem? Is there something therapeutic/magical about this list?

Form processing in Zope
by Gitte Wange 02 Apr '01

02 Apr '01

Hello, I have now found out that my problem isn't just a select box in Zope, but it is all form processing. I am mostly a PHP programmer so I am used to when you make a text field in a form named e.g. Name it will (when you have hit the submit button and the script you have set as actionscript receives the form) be declared as a variable named Name. But I guess Zope doesn't work this way. So how does a dtml document recieve the fields in a form ?

I now my poor english is not enough good to explain my problem this is the reason why I sent you the example below. I think this problem is connected with the new zope release (2.3.0) because zopesh works perfectly with the previous release. Is there somebody who has experienced the same problem using zopesh with zope 2.3.0 ? If so, please help me!!!

Multiple site deployment
by Chui Tey 01 Apr '01

01 Apr '01

The project I'm doing will be deployed to several intranet sites. I'm developing content and logic in dtml plus a few external methods. Each site deployment will be customized. The customization is simple: basically changing the standard_html_header, smtp server name, and things like that. Dealing with software updates can be somewhat of a problem since I'll have to recustomize every data.fs before deployment? How are other developers handling this kind of customization problems? The Directory View from CMF looks to be useful in storing some of the customized dtml in the file system. I've tried ExtFile but it doesn't have external dtml documents. Has anyone used zope with configuration files before? Chui

I'd appreciate a couple. Standard problem with DTML Documents They bring with them there own context (DTML Methods won't) They define "tpValues" (used by "dtml-tree" to find children of a node) to return the empty sequence. Use either <dtml-tree "PARANTS[0]" ....> or a DTML Method rather than a DTML Document. Dieter

Opinions sought on acquisition issue
by The Famous Brett Watson 01 Apr '01

01 Apr '01

Hello folks. I encountered an issue whilst site-tweaking last night and solved it immediately, but it has me intrigued as to how more experienced Zopists than I might approach it. Any wisdom you'd care to share on the matter would be appreciated. I have a site which includes a "weblog" type arrangement, and I keep the log entries in a folder called "log". There's a subfolder called "images" for pictures that I might want to include in log entries. There's also an "images" folder in the root directory for site-wide graphics such as the site logo. Thus, in the context of the "log" folder, "images" means the log-specific images only. This means I can't address the site-wide image objects in this context without reference to PARENTS[-1] or similar. {Side issue: wouldn't it make sense to have "ROOT" or similar as an alias for PARENTS[-1]?} Specifically, I can't say "images['site-logo.jpg']" in a Python expression, since it will look in the wrong "images" container. I resolved this issue by renaming "images" in the "log" directory to "log_images", thus ensuring that they have distinct names. I was planning on making this distinct-naming my general approach in future. The "images" name makes more sense from a URL perspective, but the "log_images" name makes more sense from an acquisition perspective. The reason that this is an issue at all, however, is because identically-named container objects to not acquire the contents of the containers they mask, if any. The "images" folder in the "log" folder masks the "images" folder at the root, thus *hiding* the contents of that folder rather than *acquiring* the contents of that folder. What would the implications be for Zope if acquisition meant that a failed method invocation resulted in further traversal of the namespace stack instead of immediate failure? Thus, if I try to reference "images['site-logo.jpg']", and the first "images" object found does not contain 'site-logo.jpg', would it be a good, bad, or ugly thing for Zope to *continue* the search for "images" objects containing a 'site-logo.jpg'? A container's contents might not be the only thing one could acquire in this manner: perhaps other methods could also perform some kind of continued search for success if they encounter an exception early on? This might get very confusing. I await with interest your pontifications on this matter. Regards, TFBW
