New Tab Bar product
by Kevin Lewandowski 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi, All. I've seen a few people post about this in the past. And I just recently had the need for a Tab Bar so I created a product for it (it was a great way to learn ZClasses too!) This let's you create tab bars similar to those in the Zope management interface. Except they are 100% HTML-based; no rounded corner graphics. And the colors are confugurable. http://www.zope.org/Members/kevinsl/tabbar regards, Kevin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Listen to your Yahoo!

RE: [Zope] Different row colors
by Meilicke, Scott 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

I'm guessing what is happening is the <dtml-in ebird> is creating a list, then the <dtml-if "end_date > ZopeTime()...> bit is filtering out some of your entries, causing evens and odds to be next to each other. While I haven't done this, you may be able to build your list based off of your <dtml-if> criteria and store it in another, then display based on the new list using a fresh <dtml-in> statement. Here's an example from: http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/Breadcrumbs. It filters out stuff that the user isn't authorized to see, puts that into a list (rev), then iterates over the list.  <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('rev', [])"> <dtml-in PARENTS skip_unauthorized> <dtml-let item=sequence-item> <dtml-call "rev.insert(0, item)"> </dtml-let> </dtml-in> <dtml-in rev> <dtml-with sequence-item> <a href="<dtml-var absolute_url>"> <dtml-if "hasProperty('nickname')"><dtml-var nickname><dtml-else><dtml-var title_or_id></dtml-if></a> </dtml-with> <dtml-unless sequence-end> >  </dtml-unless> </dtml-in>  Scott -----Original Message----- From: Todd Loomis [mailto:tloomis@dmso.mil] Sent: Monday, October 01, 2001 12:53 PM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Different row colors All: I'm trying to create two different background colors for my rows.

using a variable plus attribute inside a DTML-CALL
by Mitchell Model 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

I am constructing a URL for a redirection based on a variable 'arg' in the REQUEST. I can use that variable in a DTML-CALL, as follows (helped by discussions I found at NIP from a while ago in this list, e.g. http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/242bb7cc2b2c343d802568…) <dtml-call expr="RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.zope.org/SiteIndex/search?text_content=' + arg)"> However, I want to url_quote_plus the arg. The usual variable attribute syntax (either <dtml-var arg.url_quote_plus> or &dtml.url_quote_plus.arg;) isn't available inside the Python expression in the dtml-call. Without creating an external method to do the quoting, how can I get the quoted version of the variable inside the Python expression? I've tried lots of different ideas, but none worked.

ZODB Caching Questions
by Martin Gfeller 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Dear ZOPE experts, I have some (newbie) questions on ZODB and its caching mechanism: We're using a number of ZODBs to store financial deal objects and assorted static data objects. A reference to each object in a database is kept in a 'root' object, which is a PersistentMapping. 1. If objects are referenced from a root object, they can never be deallocated, because at least one reference is always kept. Is this so, and what are alternative ways to do it? 2. If an object is a simple Python object, instead of being derived from Persistent, cache control never seems to touch it. Is this correct? 3. If I change our code so that the class is now derived from Persistent, I cannot load the existing objects that were saved before. Is there any simple workaround for this? 4. The cache statistics cache_mean_deal and cache_mean_deac never seem to show anything else than 0.0, despite tracing shows that deactiviations occur. Any hints appreciated.

Deleting an object from python (command line)
by Gilles Lenfant 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi, I made a buggy access rule at the root of ZODB that makes the ZMI unreachable (error in Python script) I want to delete this accessrule so I stopped Zope and % cd $ZOPEROOT/lib/python % $ZOPEROOT/bin/python >>> import Zope >>> app = Zope.app() >>> dir(app) [..., 'accessrule'...] >>> app.manage_delObjects(['accessrule']) >>> dir(app) [...] # no more "accessrule" >>> ^D but 'accessrule' is STILL HERE ! When I do again : % $ZOPEROOT/bin/python >>> import Zope >>> app = Zope.app() >>> dir(app) [..., 'accessrule'...] # Thought it was deleted !!! Did I miss something ? Is there a "commit" like to do before quitting python? Thanks in advance --Gilles

RE: Usersession - how to get one sessionid per open browser?
by Jean Jordaan 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi Etienne > When I open a different browser from a link in one of my pages > <a href="newPage" target="_blank" . . .) The browser windows are indistinguishable to the remote server unless you give it some way of distinguishing between HTTP transactions from the different windows. AFAICS, there are two ways of accomplishing this: using URL-based session management, or using hidden form variable session management. Cookie-based session management isn't going to distinguish between browser windows. Here are a couple of links that might be useful: - http://zdp.zope.org/portals/developers/sessionmanagement/hsm - http://www.zope.org/Members/Duncan/SessionURLs - http://www.zope.org/Members/czimmet/CookieLess If you use URL-based session tracking, your URL above becomes something like <a href="newPage?s__=as983wkj32" target="_blank" . . .> where s__=as983wkj32 is the session ID. (Disclaimer: I haven't actually *done* any of the above ;) Regards, Jean PS You might want to consider switching off HTML email when posting to the mailing list ..

Structured Text buggy in Zope 2.4.1
by Ivan Kurmanov 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi, I'm new to Zope and to Python. I have installed Zope 2.4.1 and Python 2.1.1 recently. And I think that Structured Text in Zope works incorrectly now. While going through Tutorial I was a bit annoyed by strings like standard_html_footer rendered in HTML as "standard<u>html</u>footer", but then I figured out that this is not the only place where this happens. In particular I claim that lib/python/StructuredText/DocumentClass.py is wrong. At least it's behaviour doesn't correspond to the Structured Text description in the begining of lib/python/StructureText/ClassicStructuredText.py I think regular expressions in DocumentClass.py for figuring out the underlined, strong, emphasized and so on portions of a structured text are mistakenly oversimplified and I managed to instead use those from ClassicStructuredText.py which seem to be very carefully crafted. I will email my fixed version of DocumentClass.py (i'm a Python newbie!) to anyone interested. -- Ivan

Usersession - how to get one sessionid per open browser?
by Etienne Labuschagne 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi all, When I open a different browser from a link in one of my pages (<a href="newPage" target="_blank" . . .) I get the same session Id for the new browser window. I would like to treat each open browser as a different session - how do I do this? Surely if I invalidate the session manually on opening the new browser, I will detroy the session data for the other browser (which I don't want to do). Thanks Etienne
