Aaron, The Path Handler product (http://www.zope.org/Members/NIP/PathHandler) is your friend. Normally, you would create a path handler called 'games' and point it to your display_game method. To obtain the result you describe, you could move your display_game code into index_html and test for a path_to_handle, else display your 'real' index_html. Have fun.

catching shorter URLs
by Aaron Maupin 09 Jul '07

09 Jul '07

I'm trying to make pretty URLs for a game site I'm developing, and due to the hosting environment I'm somewhat limited in my Apache URL rewrites. (I've tried the normal mod_proxy / mod_rewrite rules and they haven't worked in this environment.) I'd like the visitors to see http://games.mydomain.com/game-title Whereas what's really being accessed is http://www.mydomain.com/display_game?title=game-title or any solution that allows me to query a relational database for a game title so I don't have to create hundreds of objects in Zope. The only idea I have now is to use a Virtual Host Monster mapping to send visitors using the games.mydomain.com to a folder that contains a custom standard_error_message that reads the request object, figures out the game title, and queries the database.... but that's really inelegant. Is there a way to inspect the request before Zope starts traversing objects? Or any other ideas on how to accomplish what I want? I'm not new to Zope, but I basically use it as a container for Python scripts and haven't delved too deeply into it otherwise... so I may be missing something obvious. Aaron

Thanks Dieter! That indeed did the trick. It took a lot of digging around online (and several times undoing the last edit because it made the folder I was working in uneditable with the management interface) but in the end I was successful. For posterity: A Virtual Host Monster mapping sends any request with the "games" subdomain to a special folder with the following access rule: ##### request = context.REQUEST #determine title (last part of URL) url = request.other['ACTUAL_URL'] if len(url) > 0: if url[-1] == '/': url = url[:-1] splitpath = url.split('/') target = splitpath.pop() #add title as form data to request object request.form['gametitle'] = target #rewrite path - display_game is a Python script in the root of #Zope, so by adding its name to the namestack it will be found. #Not added if I'm editing the script (hack) so I'm not locked out. namestack = request.other['TraversalRequestNameStack'] if namestack[0][:6] != 'ZPytho' and namestack[0][:6] != 'manage': request.other['TraversalRequestNameStack'] = ['display_game'] ##### So far it works well. I can visit games.mydomain.com/Tetris and www.mydomain.com/display_game?gametitle=Tetris interchangably. Aaron

Hi, Someone could tell me how to pass a variable without put in the URL using RESPONSE.redirect? For example, if code is... <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(nextpage+'?myvar='+value)"> ...I need something like <input type="hidden" name="myvar" value="<dtml-var value>"> [set up this var on the next page REQUEST] <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(nextpage)"> Thank you in advance for your help Jary ------------------------------------------------------ Leggi GRATIS le tue mail con il telefonino i-mode di Wind http://i-mode.wind.it/

The pastebin output above doesn't explain why you think Zope's behavior is a bug: it shows an attempt to call 'manage_takeOwnership' using a non-POST method, which is no longer allowed after the 'postonly' changes.

I just released new packages, so you have to run buildout without the "-N" option, so that it picks up the latest z3c.form and z3c.formui code. > BTW, is the mailing list the right place to report minor issues with zope3 > packages or add-ons like formdemo? This thread was also started > crossposted, should it be zope3-users only? I think zope3-users is the correct mailing list to address issues with Zope 3 packages, just to keep the zope mailing list less busy.
