RE: [Zope] Passing the value of a checkbox from a form to a dtml- method

> From: Gitte Wange [mailto:gitte@mmmanager.org] > value of the checkbox isn't passed along to the receiving method. > The checkbox code looks like this: > <INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="isPublic"> Perhaps you have forgotten the value it should have when checked? <INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="isPublic:int" value="1"> Furthermore if a checkbox isn't checked, no value will be send at all. Maybe it would be simpler to use a select? Then you will allways get a value. <input type=select name=isPublic:int> <option value=1>Public<option> <option value=0>Hidden<option> </input> regards Max M

Hello, I have been looking at the API and I can't find a way to create a user programatically. Am I right in thinking that this is not possible using the standar user folder? Cheers Neil Blue

USE TRansaction : _begin()
by Michel 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hello, I'm a young user of zope. I use Zope with SYBASE (we created a Product SybaseDAv2 and it seems to work perfectly). Zope created only one connection to sybase and all my Zope users used this connection to send SQL requests. Now I would like to modify some tables from my database. I need to use transaction. I unchecked "use transaction" into properties of my SybaseDAV2. I created 3 DTML Methods (begin, commit and rollback) which call a ZSQL Method (begintran, commitran,rollbacktran) but it doesn't work because the first user doesn't avoid the second user to modify the same data. By reading documentation, I found there are these methods implemeted with my SybaseDAv2 product : _begin(self) _finish(self) _abort(self) But how can I call them ? I tried : <dtml-call SybDA._begin()> <dtml-call expr="SybDA._begin()"> <dtml-call expr="TM._begin()"> and a lot of other possibilities .... but it doesn't work!! SybDA is the name of SybaseDAv2 product in my example. Maybe this will not work too. So How can I use transaction into Zope ? Could you send me an example ? Thank you very much for your help OFFNER Michel IGBMC France

**Important Notice** for Zope public CVS users
by Brian Lloyd 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hello all - [I'm intentionally cross-posting this because there are a number of folks using CVS that may read only one or the other] If you've looked at the dev.zope.org site lately, you have probably noticed a preliminary Zope 2.4 plan: http://dev.zope.org/Resources/zope_240_plan.html The major goal of Zope 2.4 will be to make Python 2.1 the officially supported (and required) Zope platform. A project dedicated to assessing what that involves has been started at: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/SupportPython21/FrontPage Enough progress has been made on identifying tasks that we want to start getting some things done. However, this will have an effect on those of you that are currently running from the Zope CVS. We are soon going to begin checking in changes to the head of the Zope CVS that will require the use of Python 2.1. Once we start on the 2.4 tasks, you will not be able to use a public CVS checkout of Zope with older Pythons. We are not going to start this until after Python 2.1 final is out (expected next monday), but wanted to give CVS'ers fair warning. If you are using the current public CVS and don't want to start using Python 2.1, you should either avoid doing any CVS updates until you're ready to migrate or move off of CVS to a current (2.3.1) release.

restricting public access
by Rudi Wurm 02 May '01

02 May '01

i would like to restrict the public access of a Zope site to only a few folders. what is the easiest way to do this ? i unchecked the view-permission in the root-folder for the anonymous role, to make this setting work in the appropriate folders. i then had to grant this permission on any item in my root-folder which is accessed by the public, but my folder with all items below are autmatically still visible, although the permission in this folder is not set. what did i wrong ?

something like getpath in ZCatalog for methods
by Marcus Schopen 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hi there, is it possible to get the absolut position/url of a method (e.g. method_X) that is located somewhere in one of the above parents folders? Something like getpath in ZCatalog. Looks like this: Folder_A testing_method method_X Folder_A1 Folder_A1.2 method_X Folder_A1.3 Folder_A2 Foder_B Folder_B1 method_X Folder_C ... Calling "testing_method" in "Folder_A1.2" should give a the the position of "method_X" in "Folder_A1.2" Calling testing_method in "Folder_B.1" should give a the the position of the "method_X" in "Folder_B1" In other words: whats the position of my next "method_X" Thanks a lot Marcus

I've recreated all the Racks from scratch, got them to work, filled them with data. Then I restarted Zope, and the _setRack problem returned. Just to keep it interesting, though, it happens with just 2 out of 4 racks in this application. At the moment, any work I do on this project is a waste of time. Someone please tell me what's going on here.
