The equivalent in Python Script is this: from Products.PythonScripts.standard import url_quote, url_quote_plus print url_quote_plus("peter bengtsson") print url_quote("peter bengtsson") return printed The only think I really miss in Python Scripts is the builtin type() and some functions from urllib.py. Why do you think type() and urllib() are unauthorized for Python Scripts? > I fixed it (for me) by adding an XXXPythonscript which > > Param :x > > Import urllib > Return urllib.quote(x) > > > Now I get my full name in the input form... > > Cheers > > tom >

Hi, I'm a newbie, and i was trying to make the Zope Zoo as per the examples cited in the ZopeBook. The example refers to making a python based script object for the Guest Book, but such an object is not present in my Available Objects drop down list. What do i do? Can i add objects from somewhere? Thanks, Raman.

Zope blocking client side image caching??, slow site loading
by Frank Sonnemans 23 Jul '01

23 Jul '01

I am building a zope version of a asp website, done by another division in our company. Unfortunately it is much slower than the ASP one. The asp based site loads slow for the first page, but al subsequent pages are loaded fast due to the browser caching the navigation images. In the zope version the images seem to be reloaded for every new page request. Is there any way to change this and speed up loading of the Zope served pages. For comparison the asp site is http://www.unitekequipment.com the zope site is at http://209.48.159.60:8080/uml/ Regards, Frank

MySQL (w/Python) Book

Can any of you recommend a good book for MySQL? Particularly one with a good write up about integrating MySQL with Python? I want to use MySQL with Zope, but I also want to use it for other (non-Zope) purposes using Python and/or Kylix. Cheers, Ron

virt.hosting & site root
by Marcus Schopen 22 Jul '01

Hi there, are there still problems using one ZOPE behind different virtual Apaches in combination with site roots? I heard something about problems with ZCatalog and some other products, which don't run in a site root folder. Bye Marcus _______________________________________ (0> Marcus Schopen //\ P.O.

TIP: use -D to debug products not loading
by Tony.McDonald＠newcastle.ac.uk 22 Jul '01

hi, Just wanted to report: I've just spent 90 minutes setting up PageTemplates on a virtual server we have here. The zope installation I'm using as the basis of it was running under a different group than that of the target server. I couldn't figure out why PageTemplates wasn't showing up in the Products folder. However, turning on the -D option in the 'start' script showed that the PageTemplates product was having a problem loading up a 'gif (of all things). Once I set the permissions correct the product loaded up fine. Thing is, I wouldn't have found the problem if I hadn't turned on the -D option. hope this helps tone.

Stop Interpreting My ASCII!!!
by Ben Ocean 22 Jul '01

22 Jul '01

Hi; This is probably a Python question, but I'm using this tag:  When an object is selected it_gets_read_as_ASCII, thus, this line: <select> looks like this: <select> As a result, I can't use HTML! How do I keep it from doing that? TIA, BenO

Ordered navigation solutions ?
by Justin Heesemann 22 Jul '01

22 Jul '01

hi.. i had to work with a commercial CMS for the last two month which had a nice feature: a navigation tree which could be used for creating a site structure. It was basically a list like the <dtml-tree> tag would create, with every entry pointing to a specific page of the website. I was wondering how to emulate something like this in zope, and found it sometimes diffucult: I was just using folders for sitestructure, and then looping through these folders (<dtml-in "REQUEST.PARENTS[-2].objectValues('Folder')"> e.g.) Everything was fine, when i discovered the fact, that i had no control on how this list was returned. Let's imagine a Website with the primary navpoints, "About" "Products" "Support" "Sitemap" in this order. How to force it to this order ?? Or someone might want to add another navpoint, let's say, "Contact", which should go right after "Support". I haven't found a way of doing so. The best thing imo would be to completly separate the navigation from the internal "file system" structure (ok, it's not a true filesystem.. but still..) Are there any solutions out there solving this problem ? Best Regards, Justin Heesemann
