(Newbie) Tree based sitemap using Zope book example
by Adrian Blockley 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

Hi All, I am trying to develop a website that has a tree based site map on each page. I have used an example in the Zope book where an objects appearence in the sitemap depends on setting a property SiteMap and uses a small Python script to test whether the property has been set. The calling dtml method uses the following code:- <dtml-tree branches="PublicObjects" skip_unauthorized="1"> <a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"><dtml-var title_or_id></a> </dtml-tree> which in turn calls the following script. """ Returns sub folders and DTML documents that have a true 'siteMap' property. """ results=[] for object in context.objectValues(['Folder', 'DTML Document']): if object.hasProperty('siteMap') and object.siteMap: results.append(object) return results This works fine in that context.objectValues(['Folder', 'DTML Document']) displays a tree based site map but of course creates it relative to the current folder object. For the life of me I can't work out how to change the script or the call so that the tree that is displayed is always the root tree or rooted in any specified arbitary folder. Is it possible to specify a context rather than the current one? - I presume it is I just don't understand Zope (or Python...) enough to work out how to do it... Zope is a fantastic product but my head is still spinning from the learning curve... All help appreciated.

AW: [Zope] Do All Classes Have Default Current Objects? REQUEST.A UTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()
by Krone, Armin 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

Dan, You wrote: 2. Is this fact -- or anything else about these globals -- documented anywhere? I looked through the Zope Book, ZQR, HowTos and Tips to no avail. I also searched the online help. I did find a _reference_ to AUTHENTICATED_USER and to REQUEST.AUTHENTICATED_USER in a function called SecurityGetUser() but no real information on the use of the AuthenticatedUser class itself. I have about the same problem: I want to get the current user name in a python script and put it there in a database. Allmost this works: user = container.REQUEST.AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName() But it rises an error if I want to print the user out: 'cannot add type "ImplicitAcquirerWrapper" to string' Any suggestions? regards Armin

Need help installing Zope on Mac OS X
by Dennis Eberl 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

A few years ago I managed to install Zope on one of my Linux boxes -- that is, I was able to stumble my way through and get it to work. And, recently, I installed a Zope binary on Windows 2000. That was a double-click piece of cake. But I have to admit David Shaw's Zope 2.4 package* for Mac OS X has me stumped. (I have email in to David requesting help and volunteering to help beta test his package but I'm going bananas waiting. : ) Has anyone out there successfully installed David's Zope_2.4_b2.sit on a Mac running OS X.1? Any timely help would be much appreciated. Dennis Eberl * See http://www.zopenewbies.net/999113663/index_html

For debugging some times i changed system dates .The actions done during this period may be newer or older.Is zope doing something with undo dates and loading old files accordingly when i start m system every day. Thanks for the help, regards, Dhanu

Not your usual way to get into Zope...
by earth_to_zope＠space.com 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

Hi all, I have been keeping an eye on Zope development for a couple years, but never REALLY worked with it. Now I have been given a tarball of a Zope 1.10 application and given the job of making it run on a new server. It's running, using ZopeHTTPserver. Under /manage there are three Z Table Subcollections: kearney copy_of_kearney myTabula This appears to be a fairly simple application. Businesses can enter their information into the database through a form and users can search the database by Business Name, Keyword, or Business Catagory. /copy_of_kearney seems to work correctly (i think). It at least lets you search the current database without generating any errors. /kearney has added three External Methods and it appears that at least one of these is causing a problem. The three External Methods are named: stashSearchStats clearSearchStats and stats.txt When you select a Business Catagory and hit "Search" you get a page that contains the following TraceBack:  Can anyone give me a pointer on where to look for this problem? I suspect it is in the lastmost part: ReportHook.py as the External Method "stashSearchStats" has a Function Name of "Hook" and a Python Module Filename of "ReportHook". But what is the nature of the I/O error? Also, I noticed that the Zope-1.10 installation gave me another Python installation (it was already on the server as part of the RedHat 7.1 installation.) Is this a possible point of confusion, or does Zope know to look only within it's own directories for the Python and modules to use? Finally, are there any Zope equivalent of text.cgis that can return environmental variables and help me troubleshoot things? Many thanks for enduring this long post. Mega-thanks to any who respond!

DTML Document namespace
by David 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

I'm afraid this is a bit of a newbie question but I just can't seem to find the answer for this one. I have a DTML Document that calls a method. I want to see what the actual namespace name / value pairs are that are present for the method to use. Is there some way to do this. I have installed the ZDebug product but this lists the namespaces rather than the name / value pairs of each namespace. Best Regards, David Price

Zope-WebDAV
by mbagepll＠memphis.edu 23 Oct '01

23 Oct '01

Hi Andreas Jung, I have few questions about using Zope-WebDAV. I am using the Zope 2.4.2 with Win2K. I have created a web folder for zope on a different machine. And I have problems renaming the Zope folders via. WebDAV. I am curious to know... 1. How do Zope-WebDAV work together? 2. Using client web folder can I rename the Zope folders (I could not do this. I tried to, but it gave me an error message saying, "unable to rename the folder")? 3. Can I drag and drop items into a Zope folders via client web folder? (I could not do even this.The error it gives me is,"cannot copy the item into the specified folder"). 4. How do i edit the dtml documents via. WebDAV? Please let me know if this is a bug or if I have to configure something else to make it work. Thanks, Madhavi Bagepalli

How to Use Javascript returns in DTML tags
by Gerard Mulot 23 Oct '01

23 Oct '01

Herman wrote I am trying to simply use the return (rfqNumber) from a Javascript script as a variable in a DTML tag (see code below). I've also tried placing the Javascript code in-line to the DTML, as well as trying to encapsulating the script in a DTML method. None of this seems to work. Yes, I am fairly new to DTML (and Zope, for that matter). I have seen articles on how to pass arguments from DTML to Javascript functions, but not on how to use Javascript returns in DTML. Can anyone point, push, or drag me in the right direction? Thanks in advance for any help.
