E.g. the following will work in Internet Explorer, but not for Netscape: { font-family: Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 9pt; } When you format it as the following, it will be rendered by Netscape too: { font-family:Arial,Helvetica;font-size:9pt; } bye -goe- _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

I suggest you use: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content type','text/html)"> By following zope's documented way, you may be able to avoid future trouble, i.e. the header won't contain a double "content type" headers or you don't include your method at the beginning by accident. cheers, oliver

Old ZClass still there
by Peter Bengtsson 24 Jul '01

If I removed ZClass product XYZ and import a new one called XYZ which is an updated version that I have been working on at home, how can I "force" the instance of it to use the new code? My Zope2.3.0 is in -D. peter

Re: How to avoid the inheritance of DTMLDocuments?

Ok, dumb mistake. After exchanging index_html/html with index.html/htm, it works somehow... Can anyone still think of any pitfalls? thanks again, Philipp

Hi jcc, first of all: thanks for your help but I ran into a small problem with your code: > <dtml-with aq_explicit only> > <dtml-var index.html> > </dtml-with> If the index.html references to Objects other the aq_explicit namespace, the code fails (right?) I modified the code to this: <dtml-with aq_explicit only> <dtml-if expr="_.hasattr(this(),'index_html')"><dtml-with REQUEST><dtml-call "REQUEST.set('temp','1')"></dtml-with> <dtml-elif expr="_.hasattr(this(),'index_htm')"><dtml-with REQUEST><dtml-call "REQUEST.set('temp','2')"></dtml-with> <dtml-else><dtml-with REQUEST><dtml-call "REQUEST.set('temp','3')"></dtml-with> </dtml-if> </dtml-with> <dtml-if "temp=='1'"><dtml-var index.html> <dtml-elif "temp=='2'"><dtml-var index.htm> <dtml-else><dtml-var header>The <dtml-var "title_or_id()"> site is not yet available.<dtml-var footer> </dtml-if> This seems to work properly... Can you think of any pitfalls or a more elegant solution? Thanks again for your help, Philipp

PIL and JPG encoder.
by Tom Cameron 24 Jul '01

24 Jul '01

I know this is mostly a python/PIL question, but I figured someone here may have experienced this. I am using FreeBSD4.0, Python1.5.2 I am trying to use PIL to manipulate Zope images. I already have the IJG jpeg-6b library installed. I then successfully (at least it looked successful) built and installed PIL. PIL works fine for all image formats except JPEG. For JPEG it gives me the following error: >>> image.save("newimage","JPEG") Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "PIL/Image.py", line 720, in save SAVE[string.upper(format)](self, fp, filename) File "PIL/JpegImagePlugin.py", line 306, in _save ImageFile._save(im, fp, [("jpeg", (0,0)+im.size, 0, rawmode)]) File "PIL/ImageFile.py", line 369, in _save e = Image._getencoder(im.mode, e, a, im.encoderconfig) File "PIL/Image.py", line 259, in _getencoder raise IOError, "encoder %s not available" % encoder_name IOError: encoder jpeg not available >>> It looks to me like the jpeg library has not been bound? with PIL?. I am very new as this sort of thing and I know almost nothing about building from source and shared libraries, so I most probably did something stupid. I checked the Setup file in the PIL build and it seems to point to the correct directories for the jpeg library. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks Tom

Images and database
by Christoph Schirmer 24 Jul '01

24 Jul '01

I am using a mysql database. Actually the sql queries with zsql are by far the easiest part in learning Zope :-) Anyway, I have the following problem. Some of the data also need to be associated with pictures. E.g. for countries, there are flags. Where should one at best store the flags? I thought it could be better to store them within Zope, so that they files can be used easily outside the database as well. In the site root I created a folder images, and as id I used the short tag of the country (e.g. ITA for Italy), which can be found in the field cou_tag. The method looks like this: <tr><th>Country-ID</th><th>Tag</th><th>Country</th><th><a href="listbycontinent">Continent</th><th> ></tr> <dtml-in countries> <tr><td><dtml-var cou_id></td><td><dtml-var cou_tag></td><td><dtml-var cou_name></td><td><dtml-var con_name></td><td><img src="&dtml-portal_url;/images/<dtml-var cou_tag>" ALT="<dtml-var cou_name>" align="absmiddle"></td></tr> </dtml-in> </table> It is probably rude, but I am a newbie :-). And it works, basically, but it is awfully slow, because for each entry it searches the images folder for a file. Is there a way to make this more elegant, and faster? Thanks for your help, Christoph
