Flash XMLRPC clients for Zope ....
by Nigel Head 06 Aug '01

06 Aug '01

I saw an enquiry a while back about Flash XML-RPC clients. After some spelunking I can add my 2 eurocents to the situation ... unfortunately not good news. The Flash player (version 42, AFAIK the newest) now claims to allow the setting of the Content-type, necessary for getting Zope to agree that this is xmlrpc, but still appears to have a bug where it appends a few garbage characters after the desired value. Zope checks for exact content type of text/xml and therefore fails to recognise the request. I haven't found a way to persuade the flash player not to do this although one may exist. I have patched my Zoep to check only the first 8 characters, this then works OK, but is ugly, and incorrect! I'll report the assumed bug to M'media and see what they have to say! regards, Nigel.

Help! I got locked out!
by Sean Hummel 06 Aug '01

06 Aug '01

I've gotten locked out of the database, and I can't get back in again. This was of course due to my own stupid playing with the database security. Is there a tool which can help me change back the security on the administrative user? I've put a lot of work into this and would hate to lose all my work because I was trying to setup user access.

Parse multiple folder
by Jan Ulrich Hasecke 05 Aug '01

05 Aug '01

Hi, I have 100 folders 1900 1901 ... 1999 2000 and in every folder there is a folder called "Texte". Inside this folder there are DTML Documents. Then I have this Method ,----[ textliste ] | <dtml-in expr="Texte.objectValues()"> | | <p><a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var title></a> | von <dtml-var autor></p> | | </dtml-in> `---- On a contentspage I call this method using dtml-with like this_ ,----[ contents_dtml ] | <dtml-with 1900> | <dtml-var textliste> | </dtml-with> | | <dtml-with 1901> | <dtml-var textliste> | </dtml-with> | | and so on `---- Now a have two questions: 1. Is it possible to use something like <dtml-with [1900-2000]> to get all texts with one command. 2. How can I make a random textlist. I tried to do somethine like <dtml-with randomline> <dtml-var textliste> </dtml-with> where randomline is the Product from phd. Is it possible to call dtml-with with a random value so that I get a list of a random folder?

Problem: Calling DTML Method from ZPT
by Mike Murphy 05 Aug '01

05 Aug '01

Hi! I am having problems executing a DTML Method from a ZPT. I have been unable to find documentation regarding whether this is even possible or not. Here are a couple of examples:  <p tal:replace="python:root.games.hangman.index_html"></p>  <p tal:replace="root/games/hangman/index_html"></p> Anybody have any ideas what it is that I am doing wrong? I like ZPT conceptually, and ran into this snag while converting some of my DTML. (I am running Zope 2.4.0 with the latest hotfix.) Mike

Can this be done? I know I can add >> a hidden input tag, but it's a little messier. You can examine the QUERY_STRING. However I dont see how a hidden tag would be messier :) The question is, how do you expect it to work? What if you give an identical name with the query string as in the form? Should the result be overwritten? Should it be combined? Regards Tino
