Re: [Zope] hidden form fields-based identification

Hi Dieter, been busy a lot last two weeks, but learned a little more Zope as well. Thanks for your hint, I guess you meant the CookieLess product, anyway there is more than a choice available. The very problem now is HOW to use the url encoding feature effectively: What I think of now is to have all the HTML links in the pages (or objects) of my site dynamically rewritten (including auth info) on the server side BEFORE serving the page to the client. A kind of filter that performs url rewriting on-the-fly right before handling the page to the web server for response. Is DTML suited for this? Is it possible to have a page acquire a DTML header that, when rendered, performs url encoding of all the links in the page (calling some python Product's method like, say, CookieLess.encodeUrl() of course)?

Had I tried this ages ago, things would have been easier. However, there is a bug in the 2.6b1 make_instance script. It sets INST_HOME, not INSTANCE_HOME. I already filed a collector issue but consider yourself warned.

2 questions about dates in MS Access and Nested dtml-in calls
by McDonnell, Larry 25 Sep '02

25 Sep '02

Hi, I have two questions. The first is how do I generate an ZSQL Method when the variables are set to timestamp(19). I am looking to do the camparsion between date routine. I cannot change the variable to a different type. My next question is to do with nested dtml-in calls. I need to call two tables. One table has the detail information I need but the other has a few fields I need for header information. There are several fields that are in both, I was going to use invoice number. Currently, I have no input fields. I want to know if I can create a query without getting an keyerror for this field. <table width="100%" border="1"> <tr> <td> Customer </td> <td> Sales Order # </td> <td> P. O. # </td> <td> Part # </td> <td> Description </td> <td> Qty </td> <td> Serial Number </td> <td> Shipped Date </td> <td> Freight Carrier </td> <td> Waybill # </td> <td> # of Pkgs/Skids </td> </tr> <dtml-in lookup_gs_query2> <tr> <td> <dtml-var customer> </td> <td> <dtml-var order_no> <dtml-in lookup_gs_query3> <td> <dtml-var waybill> </td> <td> ,dtml-var date_shipped> </td> </tr> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> </table> Larry McDonnell Proton Energy Systems 50 Inwood Rd.

RE: [Zope] Passing Arguments to ZSQL Method from Python Script

Yes, that would work. But I am trying to do it without all of that. Dtml does this automatically, so I am not sure if I need to somehow add user to the REQUEST or what. I am pretty sure there is a way to do it. Thanks, Chris Bruce -----Original Message----- From: Meilicke, Scott [mailto:scott.meilicke@intp.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 3:59 PM To: Chris A.

Hello, today I found an interesting problem. When I make a HEAD request to Zope the answer is something not really expected. The Content-type is wrong. I include two transcipts of my server responses below. please note that the HEAD request return "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" instead of the correct "Content-tYpe: text/html" which is returned with a GET request.

parsing dynamic XML
by Sushil Bhattarai 25 Sep '02

25 Sep '02

HI Is there a way to parse a dynamic XML document in Zope. I'm calling a web service from zope. This web service returns XML. I want to parse this XML and put certain values in session. How can I parse XML I'm getting without physically saving it in Zope. By the way, can I dynamically save this XML in zope. I have XMLDocument and ParsedXML product but can't figure out a way to use these to solve my problem Sushil

nested user folder question
by AM 25 Sep '02

25 Sep '02

Hi, I would like to have nested user folders as shown: /folder_1 /user_folder_1_1 /folder_2 /folder_3 /folder_3_1 /folder_3_2 /user_folder_3_2_1 /folder_4 /user_folder_4_1 Now in a structure like this, what are the rules regarding usernames?? Can similar usernames be used in different user folders for e.g. username user_1 is in user_folder_1_1 and in user_folder_3_2_1 and have different roles?? I tried it and it doesnt allow me to do that, also all roles seem to be inherited even though the type of user folders are different (one is custom and the other is stock). However even though I cant create users with similar usernames, the users in top level user_folders dont seem to percolate down so that I can assign them specific roles. For e.g. if user_1 exists in user_folder_1_1, I cant create it in user_folder_3_2_1 but user_1 doesnt appear in user_folder_3_2_1 so I cant seem to assign him any local roles there. How do I get around this??

zope <> flash
by Ed Colmar 25 Sep '02

25 Sep '02

I'm a newbie to flash, so please pardon any silly questions. What is the most painless way to get data into and out of flash? I've found several xml-rpc documents (and I'm already a xml-rpc fan): http://www.zope.org/Members/ike/Flash-Zope/FLASH_xmlrpc_zope http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmlrpcflash Is there an easier way? I'm hesitant to use the swiftgenerator, as that seems less than ideal. I know flash can POST directly into dtml/sql methods, but can it do anything with the results? Thanks for any ideas! -ed- -- Green Graphics ::: Print and Web Design ::: 510.923.0000
