Published object
by brian.r.brinegar.1 27 May '02

Howdy! I've got something setup where something is published and calls something else, which calls something else, until eventually it calls a dtml method which makes a call like this <dtml-var "tools.script1()"> Inside of script1 I want to know where the PUBLISHED object was published. Well, It hit me, but I'll send this anyway. PUBLISHED.aq_parent is what I wanted. -Brian

I use a dtml-with to get the absolute url from the top level Machine folder, then from the subfolders (of which Parameters is one). These dtml-withs are then correctly closed. However the absolute url that the initial tree widget generated was mysite/About/GuidedTour/Machine, but this fails, since somehow Zope get its knickers in a twist (if you see what I mean ;-)) > Can you not simply rename the toplevel Machine to something else ? > Or else try a hack like <dtml-with "About.aq_parent.Machine"> (untested) > but I'd really rename the whole thing. I don't think remaning the folders should be the solution, since I'm sure that under another section (Beamlines for example) our editors will want to put a ' handbook' folder under beamline1, beamine2 etc. Is there any way to 'fix' the namespace of the tree widget?

PC restart when starting Zope
by tomwh 27 May '02

27 May '02

I've installed Zope both at work and at home. At work I've installed Zope on my workstation (Win98) for testing and on W2K server for our intranet. It works like a charm. No problemo. However the problem is at home. I've installed both 2.5.0 and 2.5.1 on my machine (WinME). Whenever I click the start.bat one of the following things happens: a) VXD-error b) black screen with a nasty dotted green line at top c) The computer restarts And of course the machine just locks up on either a or b, so a restart is necessary anyhow. Any ideas? Tom Halvorsrød

ParsedXML
by Dennis Allison 27 May '02

27 May '02

I'm using ParsedXML. When it came time to arrange to edit XML directly I simply delegated the function to the same mechanism used by the ZMI. Works just fine. BUT... when I added the XML editing, some of the traversal mechanisms which walk the tree suddenly began to fail when I had modified an XML document. Now, a ParsedXML document consists of a DOCUMENT node which references the XML document properly. The DOCUMENT node contains the meta-information about the doucment. Afer editing, the DOCUMENT node has disappeared and only the XML tree remains. This is true for both my system and for edits via the ZMI. Is this a feature or a bug? I'm using ParsedXML 1.2.1 with Zope 2.50. A quick check of the bug list for ParsedXML doesn't mention any problem like this. -dra

form validation
by Ian McMeans 27 May '02

27 May '02

I've got a problem with form validation - I've added some fields to a form (the form is in a zpt), and the fields work okay. I copied and pasted the error handling code for the new fields from the pre-existing fields, and changed the variable names where neccesary. This is on plone's join_form.pt, by the way. It works perfectly when input is valid, but when the username field's input is invalid it doesn't notify the user - the field normally has a box around it and a text message to the user. On pressing the 'register' button, the form page is reloaded like it should be, but it doesn't highlight the username field UNLESS (and this is the odd part) there are also other fields that are invalid. I didn't make any changes to the username stuff, so I've got no clue what's happening. Can anyone make heads or tails of this? Why would the existance of errors in other fields affect the username field?

DTML or TAL
by Oliver Marx 26 May '02

Greetz Reading the ZopeBook.pdf one get the impression the DTML is on its way out and TAL on its way in. Is that the case? If yes, why does Devshed then post an article about DTML? \Oliver

username restrictions
by Ian McMeans 25 May '02

25 May '02

I'm trying to build a website where users from another website will log into mine. The other site has no restrictions on usernames. I'm running zope with CMF and plone, and the usernames for my website are very limited - no spaces or odd characters. Is the restriction there for a good reason? I imagine it is, but I don't know what the reason is. What I'm doing right now is the user must enter two usernames when he joins my site - the first one is from the other website, and the second one is unique to my site, and is used as the zope username. This is a hacky solution, and I don't like it, because all the good stuff that goes with usernames doesn't apply to their external username. Is there a better solution to this problem?
