Looking for Zope programmer
by Jason Cunliffe 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hello I am looking for a Zope/Python programmer in New York area to work with me creating a small site promoting and distributing foreign film and music. Familiarity with catalog essential, and preferably Etailer and the new Zope Page Templates also so we can handle roundtrip workflow and reusable style layout nicely between Dreamweaver and Zope. I will be responsible for visual design and preparation of art .css etc for all pages. Initially, there will be about 100 items in the catalog. The general site graphic design would be along the lines of www.koreanfoodnyc.com ie: sequences of small graphics & video still images for each of the 100 items. The new project should ideally use PIL-based modules such as the Photo product to streamline upload and maintenance using auto-thumnbailing, naming etc. - Jason

security.declarePrivate allows access to all authenticated users
by Itai Tavor 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi, I got the following class: from AccessControl import ClassSecurityInfo from Products.ZPatterns.Specialists import Specialist import Globals class MyClass(Specialist): security = ClassSecurityInfo() security.declarePrivate('test') def test(self): return 'test' Globals.InitializeClass(MyClass) Foolish old trusting me thought that 'test' would not be accessible from restricted code. And it really isn't accessible to anonymous users, but is freely accessible to all authenticated users. Why? -- -- Itai Tavor -- "Je sautille, donc je suis." -- itai(a)optusnet.com.au -- - Kermit the Frog -- -- -- -- "If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything" --

Has anyone else experienced Zope shutting down automatically? I can't seem to trace when it happens, but it seems to just shut down after a few hours.....Is there a log file kept anywhere? Thanks! Aaron.

Exporting an URL with a file extension from a product
by Gregory Popovitch 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi All, I'm quite a novice with Zope, and I'm working on a product which exports a style sheet(which is computed, so it can't be a static file). If the URL (and the python function name) is 'stylesheet', it works fine in IE but the style sheet is not cached by Netscape. I believe that the URL in the LINK tag needs to have an extension of .css to be cached by Netscape, but I would be happy to hear otherwise. How can I export an URL named "stylesheet.css" from a python product? gregory

ZClass views and manage_ methods
by Lee Harr 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi: I have just been hit with ZClass fever. I am digging it! I found that I can create methods in my ZClass and then use those methods for different management views. One thing that is cool on these methods is to include <dtml-var manage_tabs> What I would also like is to be able to include that next set of stuff that is in manage_main, most especially the select box that seems to have something to do with filtered_meta_types. Can I get that one from my ZClass dtml methods? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

Persistent dictionaries
by Thomas Olsen 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi I'm working on a CMF Product which is based on PortalFolder and PortalContent. This Folderish object contains some items which inherits from OFS.SimpleItem.Item, Persistence.Persistent and Aquisition.Implicit. These items have (had) some properties which are speciel to their class. In order to get around the problem with adding new attributes and having instantiated objects which doesn't have the attributes I decided to keep the attributes in a dictionary. So in my base class I did: ---snip-------------------------------------------- class AbstractElement(Persistent, Item, Implicit): """ Abstract base class for Element objects. """ _attributes = PersistentMapping() def __getattr__(self, name): if self._attributes.has_key(name): return self._attributes[name] else: raise AttributeError, name ---snip-------------------------------------------- and my derived classes look something like this: ---snip-------------------------------------------- class TextElement(AbstractElement): """ text element. """ meta_type = 'Text Element' def __init__(self, id): self.id = id self._attributes = {'value':'','html':'','alignment':''} def edit(self, value, html, alignment): """ Update the properties """ self._attributes['alignment'] = str(alignment) self._attributes['value'] = str(value) self._attributes['html'] = utils._format_stx(self.value) ---snip-------------------------------------------- It works great - until the object gets unloaded from the memory :-( What am I doing wrong? -- Regards, Thomas Olsen http://www.tanghus.dk
