YIHAW latest file list

The code was already in the YIHAW product (control panels) I modified it for look and feel. ZopeTime()-2, gives the range to pull from catalog. NOTE: It blew up after 20 days. I did not investigate since I only needed 2 days worth. <dtml-unless "meta_type in ['DTML Method','Image','DTML Document','Yihaw Folder']"> line ignores listed meta_types. I only wanted Yihaw objects visable. Thanks for the help.

Dunn/USA/BAC@BankofAmerica cc: Subject: Re: [Zope] File List Why not create a ZCatalog with a FieldIndex on bobobase_modification_time. Then you could use a range search on the ZCatalog. Btw. Zope 2.6 comes with a DateRangeIndex. This might solve your problem too. Maybe you can steal it from the Zope 2.6 tree and use it under 2.5.X (not tested).

dtml method calling a second dtml method: how?
by rruth＠computer.org 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Yes, I am new to Zope ... I am tring to use a Formulator form instead of the form generated by Z Search Interface because I can easily validate the data returned by the Formulator form before the query is sent to the MySQL database. My problem: when the submit button is pressed the "feedback" dtml method calls Formulator and does validation. If there are no errors I want this "feedback" dtml method to call the "report" dtml method that was previously generated by the Z Search Interface ... but all I see is the raw "report" code ... not processed. How do I get one dtml-method to call a second dtml-method and have the dtml in the second method processed? The following, from the first, "feedback" dtml-method, does not work: <dtml-var expr="report"> where "report" is the Id of the second dtml method. Richard rruth(a)computer.org

Virtual Host Monster, Win 98, ZopeBook2.6
by Danny Morgan 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

I'm attempting to set up virtual hosting on my development machine which is running Win 98 only. In chapter 18 of of the online Zope Book (http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/VirtualHosting.…) there are instructions and a couple of examples. I've created a VHM object and tested it with a vhm_test folder and index_html method. The results of that test were positive. The next step did not produce the desired results, however. As instructed, I created an alias in my system's 'c:/windows/hosts' file (which is in slightly different place than it would be for NT, but the only such named file on my computer). The alias is: 127.0.0.1 www.example.com I also added the line: www.example.com:8080/vhm_test to the VHM's 'Mappings' tab. When I enter 'www.example.com:8080' in my browser, I get an 'Invalid syntax error/Page Cannot Be Displayed'. Is Win 98 not able to handle this, or have I done something wrong, or ?? Thanks, Danny

I would kill the w2k windows "~" directories by uninstalling and then installing in something simple. (C:\zope) Don't install python, it'll get installed automatically w/ zope. Install mysql-3.23.51-win.zip (from mysql.org) if you want a local mysql server. (probably?) install Mysql-python-0.9.1.win32.py2.1.exe then install that exe that I had posted before. Give it a try.

RE: [Zope] LDAPUserFolder Question
by Meilicke, Scott 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

There are 8 groups associated. From the web page after clicking on the user entry: LDAP Groups for cn=Scott.Meilicke,cn=Recipients,ou=North America 3,o=Crane Then a list of eight groups. However, on the exchange server, there are only 8 non-hidden distributions lists (groups), and this user only belongs to a few of them, but not all. Yet the web page shows all the groups listed. Also, none of the check boxes next to any of the groups are checked - should the groups the user belongs to be checked?

Sort by date: Script to DTML
by Patrick Romano 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

I have created this script which allows me to sort a certain number of kubes by content creation date in the right way showing : DD/MM/YY : import time for items in sequence.sort(context.objectValues('Kube'), (('content_creation_date','cmp', 'desc'),)): data=items.getProperty('content_creation_date') data2=time.strptime(data,("%Y-%M-%d")) print time.strftime(("%d-%M-%Y"),data2) print items.title return printed How can I achieve the same result of the script, but within a DTML- document? (or method, or even page template) I'm not sure about what I can use there or how I can import the script correctly... -patrick _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
