Translating a webpage
by Sam Boggess 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

I'm wondering if someone can point me in the direction of some documentation that will tell me the best way to translate a web page into multiple languages using Zope Page Templates. In previous sites we've done in DTML we used a 'phrases' table in our MySQL database that contained phrases in each language the site required. We then used sql methods and a dtml-let statement to create a list of the phrases used on a certain page. I'm considering using the same basic idea for a page template site, but am wondering if there is a better way of doing translations. I've read about using .po files. Is there an easy way to hook these up to Zope? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Finding a match in a large dataset - btrees?
by Cameron Beattie 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

I have a large set of data (that will be stored in MySQL) that I wish to match to and am wondering what the best method is. Assume the following data in table LOCATION_MATCH: LOCATION_ID LOCATION_PATTERN PARENT_ID 10 6 11 4 10 13 2 11 12 9 11 14 1 13 15 2 13 The string 6438 should return 11, 6421 14, 6422 15 and 6499 12. I've read a bit about btrees on the zope wiki and wonder if that's the best way. However I am struggling with the basics: 1. How do I get the data from MySQL into a btree in Zope? Something like: from BTrees.IIBTree import * t = IIBTree() t.update(context.select_from_LOCATION_MATCH) # errr, no 2. How do I find the matching node i.e. when I want to know that 6422 relates to location_id 15? Any help or pointers to further documentation would be appreciated. Regards Cameron

Accessing a Subfolder of a Parent Folder
by Asad Habib 05 Dec '05

How do I access the subfolder of a parent folder? I am using the following but cannot seem to access the folder object: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('parentFolder', PARENTS[2].id + 'Test')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.get('parentFolder').initialize_vars()"> I get the following error: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: 'str' object has no attribute 'initialize_vars' I understand that a DTML method cannot be called on a string, but how do I obtain the object that represents the subfolder 'Test'? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. - Asad

Is there a Zope Calendar app available which looks and works like Plone Calendar? I can't use Plone because it is too heavy for the avialable resources. -- John

How do I tell which Zope version is installed by looking at the file system? Is there anything like a 'version' file which would identify it? -- John

You don't have to, from what I read here on another Zope ML it can work. But as soon as you have problems and you want to get help here you're better off using Python 2.3 with Zope 2.x (x < 9) > Can I use Zope3 with Python 2.4 ? Not sure, but I think yes. See the INSTALL.txt it should have a paragraph about the Python version to use. Andreas -- Change your thoughts and you change your world.

killing off individual Zope session
by Dennis Allison 05 Dec '05

05 Dec '05

We just had an example of a run away process with one of our authenticated users. I would have liked to kill off the user's processing while leaving all the other users running. Any ideas as to how to accomplish this? I do know the user's login and password, but little else. We use the Cookie Crumbler and a slightly hacked UserFolder for authentication. --
