zope: methods and settings
by Jan 07 May '01

07 May '01

hello, i hope someone can help me with two (hopefully) easy questions. 1. i would like to write a method that creates a folder and a default dtml-document. this methods shall be started through a form. at the moment i can use this method in order to create a folder (id is given via form) and a default dtml-document, both in the directory from which the method is started. how can i make settings so that the default dtml-document is created in the new folder, or put into the folder directly after creation? 2. i list zope folders in a navigation. in order to list them in a special order i use an attribute (index). is it possible to display the value of this attribute for each document or folder in the management screen in addition to id and name? thanks a lot in advance, jan

sum up values of two variables
by Marcus Schopen 07 May '01

07 May '01

Hi there, how do one sum up the values of two variables? <dtml-let a="_.len(hello.getPhysicalPath())" b="'BASE'"> <dtml-var a> <dtml-var b> </dtml-let> In other words: the result of _.len(hello.getPhysicalPath()) and the string "BASE" should sum up to one variable, something like <dtml-let a="'BASE'+_.len(hello.getPhysicalPath())"> Thank you Marcus

DateTime() BUG!
by Kai Hofmann 07 May '01

07 May '01

I am still a stupid beginner to Zope, but when I am not completly wrong, then I have found another BUG within ZOPE's DateTime(): (pseudo syntax): enddate=2001/05/04 DateTime().lessThanEqualTo(enddate) results for today (2001/05/04) into FALSE !!! I can only assume that this happens, because the DateTime() returns a date and a time - where enddate is only a date .... Can someone verify this and report the bug to the developers??? Its really important for me!! Thanks Kai -- Institut für Seeverkehrswirtschaft und Logistik http://www.isl.org/ Dipl.-Inform.

Properties and naming...
by Magnus Heino (Rivermen) 07 May '01

07 May '01

Hi. How come a ZClass can have PropertySheet with properties named like 'Måndag', but if you create a python product and inherit from PropertyManager and add 'Måndag' to _properties, you get an syntax error on the 'å'? You get the same error in you try to do something with the variable in a Python Script. The ZCatalog on the other hand, deals with the propertie just fine. So, the question is, is 'Måndag' a valid propertie name? /Magnus

Proper Case function
by Tommy Johnson 06 May '01

06 May '01

Hello all, I'm looking for a proper case function --> something that will return the string "Category" from the string "category". It doesn't have to worry about if the string is a proper name, but that would be nice. I'm just trying to figure out if a function exists that will capitalize the first letter of a string (or if I have to script something). Thanks in advance, Tommy _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

Re: [Zope] [FEATURE REQUEST] Improving Zope's management interface

I would not mind, but would use them rarely. > Another thing I'd be glad to use would be MoveUp and MoveTo buttons: Never wanted to have that: I open two browser windows, showing source and destination. I select and copy/cut in the source, move to destination and click "paste". For me, at least, it would be much more helpful, if the controlling buttons would be both at top and bottom. Dieter

broken root security tab
by Dave Ahn 06 May '01

06 May '01

Hello, I recently upgraded to Zope 2.3.2 and added several new products. Sometime during that process, my root security tab stopped working with: Error Type: TypeError Error Value: string member test needs char left operand A quick mailing list search indicates that it is probably related to a missing ',' in one of the products, but I am just guessing. How can I track down the source of this error? I tried to run the python debugger, but trying to access Zpublish.Zope('/manage_access') simply denies access. I'm rather new to Zope debugging, so any help would be appreciated.
