There are some applications for which I suspect ZODB might not be well-suited. These probably ones where there are lots of records to scan and/or lots of updates, which I presume could lead to major ZODB bloatage. I started using gadfly with zope and came to realize that the warnings regarding it's toy status were to be taken seriously. I switched to mysql and have been very happy with it. It's easy to install and maintain, uses standard SQL syntax and has very good performance. My understanding is that similar arguments can be made for postgres which has some extra features sub subselects but also its own downside.

Is the ZODB, which makes zope objects persistent. I have been thrilled with it. Why mess with a relational database, when you get a great object database for free. Regards Chris zope.jobmart.com 1-510-740-6486 lozinski(a)openstepnews.com lozinski(a)jobmart.com

But if the function returns an object you should be able to use its methods. You better show us just how you are trying to do this. Cheers, Tom P

The browser client has form data that it submits, and the Zope REQUEST object ends up containing the form data. The client knows nothing about Zope objects. Tell us what you really want to accomplish and we will help you work out how to do it. Cheers, Tom P
