Alternate row shading
by Steve Jibson 10 Jun '04

10 Jun '04

The documentation that I've been able to find suggests that if I want to do alternate-row shading for a table, I should do the following: <table> <tbody tal:repeat="item container/objectValues"> <tr bgcolor="#EEEEEE" tal:condition="repeat/item/even"> <td tal:content="repeat/item/number">#</td> <td tal:content="item/id">Id</td> <td tal:content="item/meta_type">Meta-Type</td> <td tal:content="item/title">Title</td> </tr> <tr tal:condition="repeat/item/odd"> <td tal:content="repeat/item/number">#</td> <td tal:content="item/id">Id</td> <td tal:content="item/meta_type">Meta-Type</td> <td tal:content="item/title">Title</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> This is all fine and dandy until the number of columns gets big and the code to generate them gets complicated. Since all of the TDs are duplicated, you end up maintaining the same code twice. It was simpler in DTML when I could do: ... <tr<dtml-if sequence_even> bgcolor="#EEEEEE"</dtml-if>> ... and not duplicate the whole block of TDs. I think I've found a way to make it work similarly using ZPT, but it's a hack at best, and it's very ugly: <table> <tr tal:repeat="item container/objectValues" tal:attributes="bgcolor python:(repeat['item'].even() and '#EEEEEE') or None"> <td tal:content="repeat/item/number">#</td> <td tal:content="item/id">Id</td> <td tal:content="item/meta_type">Meta-Type</td> <td tal:content="item/title">Title</td> </tr> </table> I'd say this is still better than duplicated code. I've been doing this ZPT stuff for all of two days now. Is there a better way to do this?

Broken time criteria in CMFTopic?
by Hauan, Michael J 10 Jun '04

10 Jun '04

I've looked for answers to this elsewhere but haven't found any, so hopefully turn to you all! Situation: adding a Topic to find items that are less than, for example, 2 weeks old. I'm using Zope 2.7.0, CMF1.4.2, and Plone 2.0-final. Problem 1: when I set the "friendly" date criteria to "less than", "2 weeks", and "old" and hit save, the "less than" is changed to "more than" and the Topic returns no results. Problem 2: when I set the "friendly" criteria to "within", "2 weeks", and "old" and hit save, the parameters are saved but the Topic still returns no results.

Still lost in security land

Hi all: I'm calling an External to access a SOAP service. OK, here's the External class: import sys import Globals from os import path from Acquisition import aq_base from AccessControl import ClassSecurityInfo from Acquisition import Implicit import SOAPpy class Result(Implicit): def __init__(self, results): self._results=results # Create a SecurityInfo for this class security = ClassSecurityInfo() security.declareObjectPublic() security.declarePublic('getResults') def getResults(self): return self._results Globals.InitializeClass(Result) def search(self,REQUEST): # edit this for the exact server url = 'http://localhost:8080/jboss-net/services/OISSoap?wsdl' proxy = SOAPpy.WSDL.Proxy(url) # Get values from the REQUEST gender = REQUEST.get('gender') race = REQUEST.get('race') age = REQUEST.get('age') ageRange = REQUEST.get('agerange') height = REQUEST.get('height') heightRange = REQUEST.get('heightrange') eyeColor = REQUEST.get('eyecolor') hairColor = REQUEST.get('haircolor') crimes = SOAPpy.arrayType(data = [REQUEST.get('crimes')]) counties = SOAPpy.arrayType(data = [REQUEST.get('counties')]) rowLimit = 20 From = 'portal' # not used for now idNbr = '' idType = '' weight = '' weightRange = '' sentenceInfo = '' county = '' currentRow = 0 cri = SOAPpy.structType( data = {"age":age, "ageRange":ageRange, "counties": counties, "county": county, "crimes": crimes, "currentRow":currentRow, "eyeColor": eyeColor, "from": From, "gender": gender, "hair":hairColor, "height": height, "heightRange": heightRange, "idNbr": idNbr, "idType": idType, "race":race, "rowLimit":rowLimit, "sentenceInfo":sentenceInfo, "weight":weight, "weightRange":weightRange} ) return Result(proxy.query(Criteria = cri)['results']).__of__(self) Now, everything's cool, the class works from inside Zope (Plone), and I get my result object. Then I: # get a list of people from search criteria REQUEST=context.REQUEST # process the search criteria result = context.search(REQUEST) # put in the session as a transient object session=REQUEST.SESSION session['results']=result.getResults() # (Optional) set the default next action (this can be overridden # in the script's actions tab in the ZMI). state.setNextAction('redirect_to:string:search_results') # Always make sure to return the ControllerState object return state This is what I get in search_results: The container has no security assertions. Access to 'DOCNbr' of (SOAPpy.Types.structType multiRef at 52304152): {'status': 'INACTIVE', 'DOCNbr': 139999L, 'isDCC': 0, 'isDOP': 1, 'firstName': 'RANDALL', 'middleName': '', 'gender': 'MALE', 'age': 30L, 'hasDCC': 1, 'race': 'WHITE', 'lastName': 'SOMMERS'} denied. Following the ZDG, this is exactly what they show, yet the result array inside my object has its own assertions, and I CANT GET TO THEM! Help!

Hi everybody, I would like to take all the user in a NT server. I found the product jcNTUserFolder. It's a good product. It take all of the user in the NT server, but only on the server where zope running. And of course in my case, all of the users are in another server. So, If somebody have a solution to help me, I thanks him a lot. ;-) My objectif: use the NT user (who are on another server) in plone. Thanks, Regards Damien
