Can you tell if it has something to do with the file size? Perhaps the problem files are the only ones over some size, like 64K or whatever. Try saving to disk instead of viewing in the browser - you ought to be able to do that much - then see if the file size is right. Cheers, Tom P

RE: [Zope] How to override DTMLFile?

This works with normal Python classes, but I do not know how far a DTMLFile class differs from a normal class, nor how restricted product code might be compared with normal Python code. Here is an example - class Class1: pass def foo(self): print 'This is "foo"' Class1.foo = foo obj = Class1() obj.foo() # prints This is "foo" Of course, this would affect all instances of DTMLFile and I am not clear if you really intend that or not.

Thank you, but that's Hotfixing DTMLFile and is not what I want. But if I can't get my ideal way working I'll look into hotfixing it to see how it goes. Peter >Regards, > > >P.-J.

Authentication using a form instead of a popup
by Igor Leturia 23 May '03

23 May '03

Hi all! I have an intranet which has a restricted access, so users have to authenticate before entering in it. But I don't want the authentication to be done by a popup window, so I've made two DTML methods. The first is the authentication form itself, which asks for name and password: <form name="userdata" action="check" method="get"> <p>User: <input type="text" name="username"></p> <p>Password: <input type="password" name="userpassword"></p> <input type="submit" value="Enter"> </form> The second is the DTML method that makes the checkings, and it is called check: <dtml-if "acl_users.authenticate(username,userpassword,REQUEST)"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('intranet')"> <dtml-else> Error!! </dtml-if> The "acl_users.authenticate" part seems to work OK, as it returns an error if the user or password is wrong. And if they are OK, it tries to redirect to the intranet, that is to say, the restricted part. But the problem is that at this time it asks again for username and password, using a popup window. What I am doing wrong, or what am I missing? Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Igor Leturia

How to access html-objects in DTML or python
by Wim Bekker 23 May '03

How to access html-objects in DTML or python? With JavaScript I can access objects, like the table-data with obj=document.getElementById(id) (and have something like <td id="RC1_1">). Then I can change its attributes like obj.bgColor=#FFFFFF. But herefore, I have to enable JavaScript. Is there anyway to do this with DTML or python? Wim
