HTTPSConnection Python 2.3.4
by Joshua Jacobson 01 Apr '05

01 Apr '05

On the same machine, my script works in python 2.3.4 outside of zope, but it doesn't work in python 2.3.4 within zope as an external script. There I get "sslerror: The read operation has timed out." Here's the script: import httplib, urllib Action = 'Create' CreateFunction = 'Create using Function' WLP = '123' WLPPW = '456' params = urllib.urlencode({'CreateFunction':CreateFunction, 'Action':Action, 'WLP':WLP, 'WLPPW':WLPPW, 'ClientLoginId':ClientLoginID, 'ClientPassword':'ClientPassword'}) headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "Accept": "text/plain"} conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection("xxxxx.xxxx.com") conn.request("POST", "/ClientReg.asp", params, headers) response = conn.getresponse() data = response.read() print data conn.close() Why I am I getting different response from within Zope versus without? Thanks, Joshua

Dynamic Zope Style Sheets with HTML 4.01 Strict
by Andy Yates 01 Apr '05

01 Apr '05

Good day everyone! I added a doc type string to one of my Zope pages because it needed to pass an HTML 4.01 Strict validator. When I did this FireFox seems to ignore the style sheet. My style sheet is dynamic so I used a page template and tal. If the Content Type on the style sheet is set to text/html FireFox will not load the style sheet. If I set the Content Type to text/css I get an error when I save the page. Compilation failed xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: syntax error: line 3, column 0 If I make my style sheet with a file and content type of text/cc instead of a page template FireFox loads the style sheet but the tal statements do not get rendered. So, how do I make a dynamic style sheet that has the correct (text/css) content type? Am I going to have to write a python script to call the style sheet page template and change the content type or is there a better way to handle this? Thanks! Andy

Re: [Zope] User changing their own password via External Method with Cookie Crumbler

I've tried self.login.credentialsChanged(reqd['username'],reqd['username'],reqd['password']) Both before and after self.acl_users.userFolderEditUser(reqd['username'],reqd['password'],'','') And it doens't seem to help. The password never changes. Should I be calling credentialsChanged() as a method to something else? ('login' is the Cookie rumbler folder) Does anyone have a working example code snippet? Dave

RE: [Zope] Dynamic Zope Style Sheets with HTML 4.01 Strict
by Andy Yates 31 Mar '05

Thanks! I've never used dtml for style sheets. I've always used page templates and never had a problem 'til now. Also, I don't see a way to set the content type on a dtml doc or method. I assume it would be text/html and then I back in the same boat. To restate my problem, FireFox in HTML 4.01 Strict mode does not seem to accept a style sheet if the content type is text/html. It needs to see text/css. (Of course IE is fat dumb and happy) Everything worked fine until I added this doc string to my page: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> Unless somebody has some better magic this seems work. context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type', 'text/css') return context.stylesheet() This way I can leave the content type on the page template text/html so Zope is happy and make FireFox happy by overriding the content type to text/css.

That's your syntax error. When you get a syntax error always check a couple of lines further up the script. > if container.chkpwd(uname=user,pwd=passwd): //getting sysntax error here. > RESP.redirect(/store_nic/consumables/c_menu) > else: > RESP.redirect(/store_nic/consumables/index_html) > > below is zsql method chkpwd : > > select distinct(password) from c_userdet where > username=<dtml-sqlvar uname type="string"> > and > password=<dtml-sqlvar pwd type="string"> > > i wanted to avoid d middle python script n handle the pwd validation > in the same zpt . > is it possible. > i have carry req vars eg. username pwd ,districtname in session for future use. And can you _PLEASE_ use proper English spelling? It's not 'd', it's 'the'. I realise that you may not be a native English speaker so I won't worry about grammar, but when I see an email like this 99% of the time I don't even bother reading it. I don't mean to be offensive, but I think you would get a better response if your emails were easy to read, with proper capitalisation and words spelt out in full. -- Phillip Hutchings http://www.sitharus.com/ sitharus(a)gmail.com / sitharus(a)sitharus.com

You could try to look at the tutorial on devshed.com. They created a login system using text files.
