Or is headLine the name of the variable within the REQUEST block that you want to access? eg. if you did something like: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('headLine', 'id123')"> (or if headLine is returned from a form) Then <dtml-var "REQUEST['headline']"> will display: id123 However: <dtml-var "REQUEST[headline]"> is a type of indirection, which means that the contents of REQUEST['headLine'] will be used to locate another variable with the REQUEST block. eg. <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('headLine', 'id123')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('id123', 'xxx')"> <dtml-var "REQUEST[headline]"> will display: xxx HTH Jonathan

by Niranjan Patel 10 Jun '04

10 Jun '04

Hello everyone, I tried to compile Zope 2.7 on fedora Core 2 running on AMD 64 bit with python 2.3.3 On starting the server I get segmentation fault. As an attempt I tried to install python 2.1.3 from source with -prefix and -with-threads Then installed Zope 2.6.4rc4 from source and compiled using this python On start I get zdeamon process xxxx terminated by signal SIGSEGV and go in an infinite loop. I would really like to know if anyone has ever got zope compiled on a 64 bit machine if so which os (Fedora Core 1, 2 or other) Please reply atleast to say whether anyone is running on 64 bit. I was able to get the binary release for zope 2.6.4linux2_x86 running but than I get error when I try to compile other packages like Mysql-python. Thanks Niranjan

Question about the code ...
by Samy Beja 10 Jun '04

10 Jun '04

Hi, I have a product which is a Zclass that I want to implement. The fact is that a syntax error occurs at the very first line of code. I picked up this example from a book but it seems to be erroneous !! My Zclass is named PatternClass and the function that makes troubles is PatternClass_add. Here you are the code I put in it but, still with the syntax error. #<HTML> #<HEAD><TITLE>Add PatternClass</TITLE></HEAD> #<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" LINK="#000099" VLINK="#555555"> #<dtml-with PatternClass.createInObjectManager(REQUEST [headLine],REQUEST) #<dtml-call "propertysheets.PatternDescription.manage_editProperties(REQUEST)"> #</dtml-with> #<dtml-if DestinationURL> #<dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(DestinationURL+?/manage_workspace?)"> #<dtml-else> #<dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(URL2+?/manage_workspace ?)"> #</dtml-if> #</body></html> It is a simple function and I have no idea about how to implement it in another way ... Thanks for your help ... _________________________________________________________________ Elections 2004, les dernieres nouvelles http://www.fr.msn.be/elections2004

Cookie and Basic authentication
by Ulrich Wisser 09 Jun '04

09 Jun '04

Hi, my web application uses cookie based authentication. Which works very well with CookieCrumbler. Now I have been asked to implement some XML-RPC functions, which should use the same login information but use Basic Authentication. Any idea how to do that? Thanks Ulrich

RE: [Zope] Zope Book: WYSIWYG Tools for Page Templates?

> From: zope-bounces(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org] On > Behalf Of yuppie > The ZPT chapter of the Zope Book > <http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/ZPT.s tx> names Netscape Composer and Amaya as WYSIWYG tools for Page Templates. Does anybody use them? Does it work? AFAICT at least the current Mozilla Composer 1.7 / Nvu 0.20 and Amaya 8.5 in WYSIWYG mode remove TAL and METAL attributes. Hmm, I just tried it with my copy of Moz 1.7a, and the TAL attributes were left in place. I copied the template to a separate file and saved that (to the files system), I haven't tried to save directly back to Zope. There is also the new NVU editor by the Lindows people. It is open source,and is built using the Mozilla Composer code base. It is still a beta, but looks pretty good, although I have not tried it for page templates so far. It can use ftp to talk to your server. I'd check it out, see if it works OK with Zope. http://www.nvu.com/index.html Cheers, Tom P

ZPT arbitrarily inserting white-space
by Steve Jibson 09 Jun '04

09 Jun '04

So, I've decided to make the switch from DTML to ZPT and the changeover has gone fairly well. I am running into a little snag though. It appears that ZPT arbitrarily inserts newlines and white space into the rendered html. I've managed to condense my problem down to a simple example: ZPT #1 (this is all one line--if not, it got mangled by email): <span tal:repeat="item python:['one', 'two', 'three', 'four']" tal:replace="item">ITEM GOES HERE</span> ZPT #2 (this is two lines--if not, it got mangled by email): <span></span> <span tal:repeat="item python:['one', 'two', 'three', 'four']" tal:replace="item">ITEM GOES HERE</span> When I display these in my browser, the fist gives me "onetwothreefour", just as I would have expected. The second gives me "one two three four" and if I view the html, there is a newline after each of the "one", "two", "three" and "four" that really shouldn't be there. The tal:repeat statements haven't changed from #1 to #2, the only difference is the addition of the first "<span></span>" line. I have also seen ZPT change something like this: <span class="someclass" style="color:red">X</span> to something like this: <span class="someclass" style="color:red">X</span> Is there a way to tell ZPT not to mess with my white space? Thanks, Steve P.S. Zope 2.7.0, python 2.3.3, linux

Accelerated HTTP Cache Manager doesn't use SiteRoot?
by David Chandek-Stark 09 Jun '04

09 Jun '04

I'm a Squid newbie, but at least seem to have it working with my Zope site. However, I have a CMF site that is being served as the virtual root of the site (via Apache Rewrite/Virtual Host Monster), so there's a SiteRoot object in the root of the CMF site. The Cache Manager is also in the root of the CMF site, and is set to notify the Squid URL of purges, but the purge requests are relative to the root of Zope, not SiteRootPATH, so don't match the Squid cache URLs. Any help appreciated. -- David Chandek-Stark Web Applications Developer Duke University - Perkins Library (919) 660-5859 dc(a)duke.edu

Zope Book: WYSIWYG Tools for Page Templates?
by yuppie 09 Jun '04

09 Jun '04

Hi! The ZPT chapter of the Zope Book <http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/ZPT.stx> names Netscape Composer and Amaya as WYSIWYG tools for Page Templates. Does anybody use them? Does it work? AFAICT at least the current Mozilla Composer 1.7 / Nvu 0.20 and Amaya 8.5 in WYSIWYG mode remove TAL and METAL attributes. I'm currently working on the 2.7 edition of that chapter. If nobody can give me a hint how to use Composer or Amaya, I'll remove their names. OpenOffice 1.1 also deletes unknown attributes. Are there any other open source WYSIWYG tools that can be used for Page Templates? Or just Dreamweaver and GoLive? Cheers, Yuppie

list zope catalog queries starting at item #3
by Sean Kelley 09 Jun '04

09 Jun '04

How does one display a catalog query starting at item 3 instead of item 0 (or 1) ? Can you set a variable for the starting point?  <div metal:define-macro="newsSlot" tal:define="results python:request.get('news', here.portal_catalog.searchResults( meta_type='News Item' , Subject='Scoop General Updates' , sort_on='Date' , sort_order='reverse' , review_state='published'));" tal:condition="python:test(template.getId()!='news' and results, 1, 0)"> <div class="box"> <h5 i18n:translate="box_news">All General Updates</h5> <div class="body"> <tal:block tal:repeat="obj results"> <div tal:define="oddrow repeat/obj/odd" tal:attributes="class python:test(oddrow, 'content even', 'content odd')"> <a href="" tal:attributes="href obj/getURL"> <img tal:replace="structure here/newsitem_icon.gif" /> <span tal:replace="python:test(obj.Title, obj.Title, obj.id)"> Extended Calendar Product </span> </a> <div tal:replace="python:here.toPortalTime(obj.modified)">July 7, 08:11</div> <br> <font size="-1"> <i tal:content="structure python:test(obj.Description, obj.Description, '(No Description)')"> Description </i></font> </div> </tal:block> </div> </div> </div>
