Sorry, The problem is not finding the Show() method, but rather Show() can't find the Items property in the instance. When using a dtml method to access an instance Method which in turn trys to access an instance Property the instance method fails to find the property My Question really is - How does the instance method refer to the instance property? -----Original Message----- From: zope-admin(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of David Kyte Sent: 10 January 2002 19:19 To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] ZCLass methods Hi, Trying to Grock ZClasses ...... I want to create a text menu product using ZClasses. I create the product and add a zclass inherriting from dtmlmethod, then add a propertysheet called ... Properties (duh!) To the Properties I add a lines property - called Items. I then add a view enabling access to the properties from the management interface. I can now add an instance and access the properties from another DTMLMethod object End of part 1 - go for Coffee I know want to create a ZClass method that displays the lines, so in the Zclass propertysheets/methods class I add a dtml method called Show which displays the Items property. If I add the Show method to the VIEWS tab then it appears in the instance management interface. If I create another DTMLMethod called TestMenu which calls the ZClass instance ( Mn1 ) <dtml-var "Mn1.Show()"> then I egt an error trying to find the instance method Show. Any Ideas?

Hi All: I'm using the titles of my pages as the subject in my webmaster email links. However some of my titles use "&" and it seems that it breaks off the rest of the title after it. Can I replace the "&" with "&"? If so how and or do I need to do some thing else? Thanks, Todd

conflict errors
by Chris Herrnberger 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Zope nubie here: Been playing (TM) with zope (its a hobby actually) on win98rev2 lately just to see how it works in an ms environment as opposed to linux. On several occasions now I have seen the following error while installing various products. Most recently this occurred on installing the ZDP toolset. error: ConflictError: ("'\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x06'", '<extension class App.ApplicationManager.ApplicationManager at 00FEA520>') with the application not installing of course. Can someone explain this notation to me as I have no clue as it to it meaning beyond the general and its reaosn for occurance. application: ZDPtools test system: win98rev2 zope: stable latest 2.4.3 python: zope supplied 2.1.1 Chris H. PS: thanks for answering all my questions in the past. Still learning...:)

access cvsweb thru Zope
by Max Ischenko 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Hi, I'm trying to find a way to use perl cvsweb CGI script via Zope. The main reason for this - use powerful auth means that Zope has. Our CVS repository is partitioned on project basis using standard UNIX mechanism (owner/group/perm). So I can't simply run cvsweb from anonymous user --- it won't has required permissions. I (probably) need to auth user first (thru Zope) and then run cvsweb.cgi from that user. Does anyone do something similar? Is it possible at all? AFAIU I should grok External Method first. -- Rgrds, Max Ischenko

ANNOUNCEMENT: New Zope-based Public Site
by Tim Owen 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Hi Zopistas, Just wanted to let you know that there is a new Zope/MySQL based public site out now. It is release 1.0 so the features are still somewhat limited. iResolve.com is located at www.iresolve.com and is a free community site (although you need to join) for people to create resolutions and share them with others. Take a look. Feedback is welcome. New planned features for version 2.0 include: email reminders, progress journals, friend list, polls, and getting CMF running. If anyone wants to help with content or new features, let me know (no economic compensation, but lots of reputational and psychological rewards). A couple of thank yous are in order: 1. Zope Corp and MySQL AB for providing great technology. 2. iMeme.net for helping me figure out FreeBSD and fixing some of my dumb mistakes (especially Jon on Christmas day - what a gem!). 3. Pieter, Oleg, Tim, Dieter, and numerous other Zopistas for helping me learn how to grok Zope enough to do something useful. 4. BZ for the ZUBB updates. Ciao. ___________________ Tim Owen

RE: [Zope] Sort by property, then match all docs w/property
by Keith J. Farmer 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Here's a solution similar to what you'd need (taken from http://sportsters.thuban.org/Trips) note the first-<var>/last-<var>: I had to dig to find out that these existed. You don't even need a temp variable to handle it. <dtml-in expr="PARENTS[0].objectValues('Folder')" sort="cat,title_or_id"> <dtml-if first-cat> <h3><dtml-var cat></h3> <dl> </dtml-if> <dt><a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"><dtml-var title_or_id></a></dt> <dtml-if info><dd><dtml-var info></dd></dtml-if> <dtml-if last-cat> </dl> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> ---------- Keith J. Farmer kfarmer(a)thuban.org http://www.thuban.org -----Original Message----- From: cgreen [mailto:cgreen@ttsg.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2002 14:39 What I'd like to do next is grab each property in a variable to compare against the value of the *next* iteration. If it matches, don't print the topic name in the table header. If it doesn't match, print the topic name and set the temp variable to the new value.

Re: [Zope-CMF] Anyone know of a MySQL-based MemberDataTool?

I have written a replacement for CMF MemberDataTool that uses MySQL as backend. However the replacement is a bit incompatible to CMF due to customer needs. -aj ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harry Wilkinson" <harryw(a)nipltd.com> To: "Jon Edwards" <jon(a)pcgs.freeserve.co.uk> Cc: "Zope-Cmf" <zope-cmf(a)zope.org> Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 12:27 Subject: Re: [Zope-CMF] Anyone know of a MySQL-based MemberDataTool? > Thanks Jon, I'll take a look :) > > > Dunno if either of these will help? > > > > http://www.dataflake.org/software/cmfldap/ > > http://zmc.immortalitysystems.net/ (seems to have disappeared?) > > > > N.B.

Tiny Tables
by Wade Pearce 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

G'day, I am new to this list, and immediately I have a problem ;) It appears the Tiny Tables have become corrupted within the site, so it keeps falling over. What I am trying to find out is if there is a way to repair these while keeping the site in its current state. Unfortunately, the site is amateur, and back-ups have fallen behind. Though we can recover from a backup, it will be somewhat dated and a large amount of work will needed to be redone by the contributors. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Wade Pearce
