stupid question: first 7 chars of an URL
by schoppa＠uni-bielefeld.de 09 May '01

Hi there, can't figure out how to write the frist 7 characters of an URL string to a new var. <dtml-var urlvar[0:4]> works fine. <dtml-var urlvar[0:7]> doesn't work. <dtml-if "urlvar[0:7] == 'http://'"> The problem is the ':'. May be one have to use url_quote. But can't combine dtml-let drml-call with url-quote to create a new var. Thank you Marcus

Does it exist a Zope product for creating/editing RSS files v1.0 (and/or 0.9)?
by Bocquillon Philippe 09 May '01

09 May '01

Hello, The SiteSummary Zope product permits to create RSS v0.91 files. The RDFSummary product permits to grab RSS v0.9 and v1.0 files from other sites. Does it exist another Zope product permitting to create/edit RSS v1.0 and v0.9 files? If no, do you know if a Python based tool can do that? Philippe Bocquillon

Where does <the client> come from...?
by 3dfestival - WebMaster 09 May '01

09 May '01

I would like to learn if it is possible to tell where the client comes from...? And if so: how...? I know the HTTP_USER_AGENT global variable but is there something like that which tells you the URL the client is comming from...? I also know about javascript:history.go(-1), but can somebody tell me how I read the URL from the back-page something like: javascript:history.href(-1)...?

the neverending constructors
by Marco Mariani 09 May '01

09 May '01

Hi! I'm writing a product which is instantiated through a wizard, made by a sequence of HTML forms. Each form is a method, so I must declare them (and the methods called by them, and so on) to assign the permissions. It becomes: context.registerClass( ZopeCA, constructors = ( ZopeCA.addWizard, # the first method is called when someone # uses the pulldown menu ZopeCA.addWizard1, ZopeCA.addWizard_cert, ZopeCA.addWizard_key, ZopeCA.addWizard_x520, ZopeCA.addWizard_extensions, ZopeCA.manage_addCA, ZopeCA.set_dbconnection, ZopeCA.error, ZopeCA.countrylist, ZopeCA.rsa_filter_save, ZopeCA.rsa_filter_load, ZopeCA.sscert_save, ZopeCA.dateForm, ) ) or even longer. Is there a way to avoid declaring everything under the sun? Other products are set up by a single form, but mine is quite complex (it needs to create a self-signed certificate, amongst other things) Thanks.

[BUG] in changeOwner
by Jerome Alet 09 May '01

09 May '01

Sorry, my previous message's content should have been (please ignore what's at its top) : Hi, it seems (in fact I'm sure) there's a bug in changeOwner's behavior: it seems like if you try to change ownership recursively from an object (Folderish) on something you already own, changeOwner returns successfully immediately even if you're not the owner of the complete subtree. AccessControl/Owner.py says: --- CUT --- if old==new: return --- CUT --- which seems to confirm my point. any comment ?

Version Save/Discard doesn't work - any news?
by cg＠cdegroot.com 09 May '01

09 May '01

This morning, I wanted to save a big chunk of changes and noticed that after doing "Save", changed documents were still marked with the red diamond and that outside the version, the base folder suddenly gave a key error. Undoing the save luckily restored the status quo, and so it was time to hunt the Zope.org site for information. I noticed that similar behaviour has been reported a couple of times last year on the mailing lists, and except for a very old instance I never saw a response from an "official" on what can cause this, what one can do to prevent this, and whether this will be fixed, ever. The work-around I picked up from previous reports (packing the database and retrying) worked beautifully in my case, but is generally not acceptable: we host a lot of websites on this system, our dealers are constantly building/modifying customer sites and I'm only dimly aware of when they are busy. It is of course not very nice that every time I want to save a version, I have to kill their undo history by packing the DB (I usually don't pack the DB, and if I do at +30 days). So: 1. Is this a problem that can be avoided in some way? 2. Will it be fixed? Regards, Cees

[BUG] in changeOwner
by Jerome Alet 09 May '01

09 May '01

Hi, it seems (in fact I'm sure) there's a bug in changeOwner's behavior: I suspect changeOwner of changing ownership on the folder's content when you change ownership on the folder itself, e.g.: Folder-A |--Folder-B |--Object-C |--Folder-D |--Object-E if I change ownership on A but not its subobjects, then it seems that ownership is changed on A,B, C and D, while E retains its original ownership. is it normal ? To me it's not. it seems like if you try to change ownership recursively from an object (Folderish) on something you already own, changeOwner returns successfully immediately even if you're not the owner of the complete subtree. AccessControl/Owner.py says: --- CUT --- if old==new: return --- CUT --- which seems to confirm my point. any comment ?
