Converting REQUEST style lists into real lists
by Tomek Giela 24 Jul '01

24 Jul '01

When you put into your form: <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="1"> <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="2"> <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="3"> <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="4"> <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="5"> <input type="checkbox" name="varia" value="6"> and then select first three of them and submit that form, you'll get in form "action" document: <dtml-var varia> displayed as: ['1','2','3'] Is there an easy way to convert 'varia' into a list? Those inputs are dynamicaly generated from database, and I want to analyse which were choosen in <dtml-in "varia"> block. Or, maybe there is another trick to colect&analyse them in a simple loop? -- Tomek Giela IMAGINATION DESIGN S.C.

Hi, sorry about this stupid question. But how to update ZOPE 2.3.3 to 2.4.0. Can't find any downloads like Zope-2.3.x-to-2.4.0-linux2-x86.tgz. Thank you Marcus

MS Access follow-followup
by Bruce Dykes 24 Jul '01

Thanks to all who replied. It turns out that the NT server will be the new host of the database (just for storing the master copy - not as a database server), and it turns out we need to build a scheduling/calendaring and messaging app around it. Before I found out this particular bit of info, I was playing around with converting the database to XML. If you have no need of write access to the database, either structurally, or just records, this isn't necessarily a bad option. But since we'll be hosting the database, and building this app around it, the obvious solution is to install Zope on the NT box, and query it from the Linux website as a client, and let Zope plus ODBC take care of all the mess. I'll post my newbie questions separately, so as to keep them in the newbie thread, and they are rather generic. But I have one or two intermediate level questions. 1> Does Zope on Win32 have the ability to automatically execute an event, such as send an automated email on a given date? I imagine the worst case scenario is to have an external method that calls a script that writes an NT Task Scheduler entry that sends out a form email with all the required blanks filled in. I'm hoping that there's either a product or that Zope has that functionality builtin, so I can manage it all from within Zope. 2> After reading the documentation for some of the Win32 based products, I went ahead and installed the latest version of Python for Windows, as it seems version 2.1.1 is better suited for interfacing with Windows objects than 1.5, and I want to keep options open, such as maybe serving up Visio diagrams or the like. Good idea or bad idea? Which will be used? I see that some batch files point to C:\Program Files\website\bin\python.exe while scripts executed on their own just call the registered Python interpreter, which is 2.1.1. Is this bad? Newbie questions to follow... Thanks Bruce

Re: [Zope] CoreSessionTracking - looping over items
by Chris McDonough 23 Jul '01

23 Jul '01

Please try to keep correspondence on the list. THis can't be done from DTML if you're using an internal session data container because DTML can't access attributes with a leading underscore. Either use an external session data container or use an external method. For instance, here's an external method that returns the number of session data objects in the internal session data container, along with some DTML that calls it. def numberOfDataObjects(session_data_manager): return len(session_data_manager._sdc) <dtml-var "numberOfDataObjects(session_data_manager)"> HTH, - C ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pawel Lewicki" <lewicki(a)provider.pl> To: "Chris McDonough" <chrism(a)digicool.com> Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 1:58 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] CoreSessionTracking - looping over items > > > You can loop over the session data object in a session data container. > The > > session data container uses the Python mapping interface. > > > > There is an "internal" session data container if you're using the default > > RAM-based sessioning.

Was DC's name-change the 'surprise news' promised by Michel?
by Hamish Lawson 23 Jul '01

23 Jul '01

At the recent EuroZope conference in Berlin, Michel Pelletier promised there would be some 'surprise news' when Zope 2.4.0 was released. Zope 2.4.0 has just been released, but I can't see anything in the announcement that hadn't been indicated beforehand. Was Michel in fact referring to Digital Creations' simultaneous name change rather than to something in Zope 2.4.0 itself?

Netscape doesn't recognize dtml-doc as html
by Stephan Goeldi 23 Jul '01

23 Jul '01

I think this is a newbie question. When Netscape doesn't realize, that a dtml-document is HTML (e.g. when I have a link to http://www.website.com/zope and /zope is a dtml-doc), what can I do? In the standard_html_header is the tag !doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 3.2//en" I thought this should be enough to let browsers recognize dtml as html. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

ZSQL methods & results lists
by Garry Steedman 23 Jul '01

23 Jul '01

Hello all, i have a ZSQL method called get_clients. i want to put the results of this method into a list called results. if i then slice that list (using the variable batch_size) i want to create a new list called results_temp which i then use for displaying the result set. here is my code: <dtml-unless batch_size> <dtml-call expr="REQUEST.set('batch_size',20)"></dtml-unless> <dtml-unless skey> <dtml-call expr="REQUEST.set('skey', 'NOM')"></dtml-unless> <dtml-unless rkey> <dtml-call expr="REQUEST.set('rkey', '')"></dtml-unless> <dtml-unless results> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('results', [])"> <dtml-in get_clients sort=NOM> <dtml-call"results.append(_['sequence-item'])"> </dtml-in> </dtml-unless> <dtml-if expr="batch_size!=20"><dtml-var batch_size> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('results_temp', [results[:batch_size]])"> <dtml-else>20 </dtml-if> i am a bit stuck with the following issue: i cant seem to call the field names associated with the ZSQL method. i think the problem is the way im using sequence-item, but i cant find a workaround: anyone have any suggestions? cheers, Garry +-------------------------------------------+ Garry Steedman mailto:gs@styrax.com Styrax Associates http://www.styrax.com/ "The Good Man has no shape." +-------------------------------------------+
