[helpme] shortening exploded path
by Marcin Kasperski 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

Let me first describe the problem. As everybody knows, if my Zope site looks so: [root] +-----[dirA]---[doc1] | +-----[dirB]---[doc2] one can use URL like /dirA/dirA/dirB/dirB/dirB/doc2 to access the same document as /dirB/doc2. It is usually not the problem, but on my site I sometimes use such links and for some reasons it would be hard to abandon it. And ... if one starts Teleport or wget, he or she usually downloads huge megabytes of replicas of the same file (things like dirA/doc1, dirA/dirA/doc1, dirA/dirA/dirA/doc1, ... dirA/dirB/dirA/doc1, ...) So, I would like to write some kind of SiteAccess rule, which would check whether the client uses such a path - and if so, redirected to the correct one to prevent the explosion. I imagine its pseudologic so: obj = the-destination-object if obj.url() == the-path-used-by-the-client process-the-request else redirect the client to obj.url() Could anyone help me writing exact code which would do such a thing? Is it a good idea? Wouldn't it conflict with VirtualHostMonster (I use zope behind apache)? PS I know that one can write <a href="<dtml-var something url>"> instead of <a href="something">. Unfortunately there are places where I can not do it (specific ZClass which does not inherit from DTML*something and is heavily used). -- ( Marcin Kasperski | Osoba jest omegalizacją ewolucji uniwersalnej na ) ( http://www.mk.w.pl | określonym odcinku etapowym (Teilhard de Chardin) ) (----------------------------------------------------------------------------) ( Grupy dyskusyjne w firmie: http://www.mk.w.pl/narzedzia/narzedzia_inn )

ZSyncer and accented characters in title
by Milos Prudek 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

When source document has accented characters in its title, it *is* synced successfully but it cannot it synced from then on. ZSyncer gives error message: "Syntax error at line 31: illegal character in content" I'm using accented character from ISO-8859-2 set (Czech characters). I'm using ZSyncer 0.3 and Zope 2.4.3 under Linux. -- Milos Prudek

Users and Roles
by Juan Pablo Romero 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

Hi! I have a little problem with user managment: /test/ modify_db (zsql method) insert_field (page template) acl_users/ fred (a user with the role 'db_user') I want to allow access to 'insert_field' only to users bearing the 'db_user' role, so I created such role in the root folder. Then I checked 'view' property in the 'db_user' column (within 'security' tab from 'insert_field'), and also unchecked the same property in the 'Acquire Permission ...' column. According to the manual, when a client attempts to view /test/insert_field, zope should allow access to user 'fred' (because he has the 'db_user' role), right? In my case zope keeps asking for login/password. What could be wrong? Thanks in advance. Juan Pablo

ParsedXML questions
by Dennis Allison 17 Apr '02

17 Apr '02

I'm using the ParsedXML product to hold and edit XML. Anyone else out there doing so? There's minimal traffic on the wiki and the specialized list. Anyhow, I have some problems -- First, what does a HTML node look like? It's clearly a tree structure but it's not clear from the docs how the XML is organized in the DOM implemenation. For example, suppose I have <A a=".." b="...." c="..."> <B> Some text </B> </A> what's the mapping in the DOM? How do I grab the value associated with A. How do I move (in DTML, ScriptPython, or External Method) to node <B>...</B>? How do I navigate around the DOM tree? Suppose I want to use the tree widget (dtml-tree) and control what gets displayed using some combination of the tag names and attributes, how does one garner the proper data? I've read the documentation and the few examples, but it's still opaque to me. Clearly I'm missing some insight. -d

by William GARCIA 17 Apr '02

Newbie Question when I try to create an object Page Template in Zope with Internet Explorer 5, Zope generate an error : Error Type: Undefined Error Value: You are not allowed to access manage_page_header in this context not found in 'here/manage_page_header', at line 1, column 1 I can't locate the problem but I suppose it involves the cookies (however cookies are enables) I'm sure it is a browser problem because with Netscape there is no problem when I create a Page Template. If somebody have an idea.... Thanks in advance. William
