Acquire/call script on object in ZPT repeat
by Gromoll, C. 12 May '02

12 May '02

Hello, I keep all my scripts in the subfolder root/scripts (is this a bad idea?). I'd like to call a particular script root/scripts/action on EACH object from the list mylist, which contains a list of folders located throughout the zope tree. I've tried variations on the following ZPT code, none of which work: <p tal:repeat="object mylist"> <div tal:content="object/scripts/action">Result of calling action on object</div> </p> The problem with the above is that action is called on the directory scripts, which is not what I want. How can I acquire action from each object? Any help from more experienced users would be greatly valued. Thanks! Christian

Re: [Zope] Calculations on a Date Field

> > Use DateTime() Thanks for your suggestion, but it didn't work.

image manipulation in tables
by Bill Kerr 12 May '02

12 May '02

this code creates a table with images in the first column and captions in the second column (images from a folder called Personal) how could I rewrite it so images go in the first row and captions in the second row? <dtml-in expr="Personal.objectValues('Image')"> <tr> <td> <dtml-var sequence-item> </td> <td> <dtml-var title> </td> </tr> </dtml-in> it seems hard to me - Bill

Calculations on a Date Field
by complaw＠hal-pc.org 11 May '02

11 May '02

My users are annoyed with the time shift of postings on a Squishdot site. The users are in the U.S. and the server is in the Netherlands (FreeZope.org, a truly wonderful thing). The DTML code in Squishdot that displays the date appears to be a date field in the posting object. E.g., the code is: <dtml-var date_posted> What I want to do is recalculate the date_posted and shift the time back about five hours. I tried: <dtml-let old_date=date_posted new_date="old_date - 0.25"> <dtml-var new_date> </dtml-let> But the server returned an error regarding the use of the minus sign. Does anyone have any hints? Thanks in advance, Ron

OpenOffice, Webdav question
by kent＠springfed.com 11 May '02

11 May '02

Howdy, Is anyone using OpenOffice 1.0 to edit Zope documents via Webdav? The OO doc says it is Webdav capable. In Zope doc I found mentioned that a port other than 8080 will return source of a page instead of rendered. Is there a predefined port to return source? Thanks, Kent

PIL Question
by J. Joy 11 May '02

11 May '02

I'm trying to create an external method that will take variables that exist in a ZSQL call and will output an image based on that: import Image, ImageDraw, StringIO, os.path def PILtest(): image = Image.new('RGB',[25,25]) ## IMage Stuff Happens here! return image Where this would occur in a DTML-Method of: <dtml-in SQL_COMMAND> <img src="PILtest">  </dtml-in> But I can't get PILtest to output the image itself. Save() doesn't seem to be of help directly. Anyone have any suggestions? Jason --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo! Music Experience
