Hacking filenames in http headers?
by Garikoitz Araolaza 07 Aug '02

07 Aug '02

Hi! I'm using a DTML method to get an XML view from a ZClass object. What I'm trying to do, is that when the user requests the address: http://www.mysite.com/Objects/MyObject/xml he/she gets an xml file with the ID MyObject.xml so that he can save it cleanly in his filesystem (or open it with his browser), so that he/she doesn't end up having thousands of files called simply 'xml'. I've thought that a header like: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type', 'text/xml')"> could be a solution if HTTP protocol would have it... But I also think that it wouldn't be very clear for HTTP protocol to have one filename for the URL and a different one for the reply to the user. Any hint? Thanks!!

LocalFS upload and delete
by Jose Gerardo Amaya Giron 07 Aug '02

Hello all. I'm using DTML with LocalFS to manage files in a site. Is there a way to upload and delete files to the LocalFS object via DTML? Or is there another way to do this to tasks? Sorry for the newbie question but I'm kind of lost. Thanks in advance -- Gerardo Amaya gamaya(a)aldeacentroamerica.com *************************************** *'Computers are like air conditioners,* * they stop working when you open * * Windows' * ***************************************

Hi, I have wanted to use getitem() in a Dtml Method to render docs "now" which are located in the subfolders where the Dtml Method is . <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('now', ZopeTime().toZone('GMT+1').strftime('%d%m%y'))"> <ul> <dtml-in "Zcat_Index_1_Dtml_Doc(id=now)"> <dtml-var "_.getitem(now,1)" size=100>... <br> <li> <a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"> More </a> </li> </dtml-in> </ul> How do I refference these subfoders so that those Docs can be rendered by the getitem().

RE: [Zope] Authenticate against active directory
by Meilicke, Scott 07 Aug '02

Yes, I have done it with the CMF version of LDAPUserFolder. The key was to use another tool (Softerra LDAP Browser) to figure out the schema, but after doing that, and making the appropriate entries in LDAPUserFolder, it worked. The only thing I tried was authentication. I did not try to get groups or other properties. Unfortunately I have deleted that particular CMF instance, so I can't recall what settings I used to get it to work - bummer.

I am almost sure that *I* replied to your question in the list! Your problem is that the links for "expand/collapse" do not contain your "uplevel". Someone invented the "urlparam" attribute, but he did not think enough. In almost all cases, the parameter to extend the "expand/collapse" URL is not constant but an expression (as in your case). Your options: * search for the "urlparam_expr" patch someone donated to fix precisely this bad design. Unfortunately, the patch did not make it in the Zope core. * use a cookie to pass your "uplevel" around This is not nice but you need not to patch Zope code. It is this, what I do in my DocFinder product (for a similar purpose to yours). Dieter

Re: [Zope] Syntax highlighting editor for Zope
by Ben Avery 07 Aug '02

07 Aug '02

JL, vim stands for Vi IMproved, and does have the usual vi workings, which are a nightmare at first, but you can also use 'windows' style ctrl+arrows, ctrl-C, ctrl-V copying/pasting etc, and is really easy to use. But to use it with Zope, you also have to install the ExternalEditor product on your Zope server, and the 'helper' application for windows, and follow the instructions to set it up, so it will start whenever you open things from the ZMI with with new 'pencil' icon. hope this helps, Ben Jaroslav Lukesh wrote: >| Odesílatel: Ben Avery <ben(a)thesite.org> >| yeah, I use Vim, which has syntax highlighting for just about >| everything, including Python and DTML > >Yeahhhh......
