Batch processing question
by Michael 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

On a results report , is there a way to put the "[ Previous 20 Results ]" and "[ Next 20 Results ]" both at the bottom of the page? I've tried different combinations all day and can't seem to get it to work. I have got it to where when you get to the last page, it will display the previous results at the bottom, but that's it.

Filling nested METAL macro slots with ZSQL items
by Eric Walstad 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

Hi all, I am trying to mix nested macros with SQL and REQUEST variables and am having trouble getting the ZSQL items into the inner macro slots: top level folder master.html - ZPT that holds "master" macro with one slot: "main" This handles the nav bar, logo, etc. portfolio - Folder master.html - ZPT with "portfolio" macro that fills the "main" slot in the "master" macro and defines slots: "description", "screen-shots" and "comments" project.html - uses the portfolio macro, filling the "description", "screen-shots" and "comments" slots with data from a ZSQL Method. In project.html I want to make one ZSQL call and use it to fill all the "portfolio" macro slots but receive the following error: Error Type: Undefined Error Value: project not found in 'project/description', at line 10, column 31 (full traceback below) Apparently my ZSQL isn't getting called or the repeat variable ("project") isn't available. How can I stick the ZSQL results into the portfolio macro slots? Thanks! Eric.

Returning incremented id from mysql query?
by Alec Munro 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

Hi all, I'm looking for a way to get the id generated when I insert data into a table with an auto-incremented key? I've found vague references to this, but assuming I do an insert from a python script, calling an SQL method like: container.SQL.insertSomething(name="bob") how would I get the id. Thanks very much, hope someone can help me with this. Alec Munro

Well, it's coming from line 232 in ParsedXML/DOM/ExpatBuilder.py :-) I suspect the problem may be your input and/or how you are using the product rather than with the product itself. Are you adding the ParsedXML object programatically or through the ZMI? Can you create ParsedXML objects through the ZMI?

Changing Python Instances in Windows
by abg＠comco-inc.com 15 Aug '02

Is it possible to configure Zope to use the instance of Python already installed on a machine, ignoring the one that installs with Zope? I am running 2.5.1 on Win2000 as a service, so I don't think changing the start.bat will do it. Thanks, Aaron Gillette

portal_type and catalog
by Pascal Samuzeau 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

Hi, I have 2 version of Zope 2.4.3 and 2.5.1. The 2 versions give the same strange result. I have declared a type 'Document' in my portal_type. I have construct a 'Document' named 'NewDocument' under my Folder, when I was connected and Authenticated. In a DTML Document named 'Search' I have <dtml-let results="portal_catalog> <dtml-var search_against> </dtml-let> The parameters are Type='Document' and SearchableText='' in hidden input. Both of the 2 versions return to me : 2 Found objects : 1 -> My NewDocument of type 'Document' 2 -> My Document declared in the portal_type. Anybody has an answer on it ?

Re: [Zope] ParsedXML trouble
by Dennis Allison 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

Hmmm... Parsed XML is a Zope Product. It goes into PRODUCTS_HOME (INSTANCE_HOME/lib/pythonProducts) or should be symbolically linked there. Simply unpack it there, go to the Control Panel using the ZMI and restart Zope. You should see it in the products listing and it should not be broken. Installing PyXML into the Python Zope should be straightforward. Unpack the directory and then, using the python in INSTANCE_HOME/bin run ..... setup.py build ..... setup.py install Here ..... is the path to PyXML and into PyXML to the setup program. PyXML uses distutils which is part of the python library for python 2.X.

Would this work with a single Windows Zope?
