The other stuff might be something like a weekly newsletter with a step-by-step guide on how to solve some common fundamental problem (like getting Zope to print dates in various formats, etc.). This would give the newbie something to chew on for a week. They could store it up on a web site for a reference list, and it wouldn't be considered spam. The nice thing about it is that once you have a cadre of articles, you just (re)circulate the same ones ala Parents magazine. Ron

> ....or is this list EXTREMELY unfriendly to new users? The learning curve on Zope is rather daungting. That doesn't help. Once you start getting Zope, you put some serious distance between the you and the newbies. The learning curve is less linear and more like a band-pass filter. That makes Zope look harder for newbies than it really is. As you might recall, we had a debate on this list regaring whether or not to create a ZopeNewbies list. Back then I was against it. But your observation (along with mine) has prompted me to reevaluate my earlier negative opinion. Linux-Mandrake has a separate Newbie and Expert list. There wouldn't be any harm in subscribing to BOTH lists. Moreover, a periodic FAQ could be mailed out on the list with all the newbie type questions we see so often (and perhaps forget ourselves from time to time). Just my $0.02.

But I noticed that not the property tab of the created article is shown in the management interface, but the property tab of its folder, altough the url is correct. Seems to me as Zope tries first to get 'manage_propertiesForm' from my article and then (because the attribute is not found) from the folder. But why doesn't Zope find the attribute in the class Article? Article is derived from PropertyManager, and PropertyManager defines an attribute called 'manage_propertiesForm. Any suggestions?

Python trouble?
by Seamus M. O'Keefe 20 Jul '01

20 Jul '01

I've just installed Zope, but when I begin the tutorial, it seems as if some words and link names have been replaced with letters and odd characters. For example: "First you need to create a t for the home page." (t is a link in this case) I assume the 't' was supposed to be a link to some key concept or definition. As it is, the tutorial is now useless. I am EXTREMELY new to Zope and would love to get this resolved. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

>The HTMLDocument product (a snap to set up) makes this easy. Ok...I hope you don't mind...I'm sure I'm asking some pretty "simple" questions, but I appreciate your help. I take it that this product then takes out the extra tags from the Dreamweaver file? How do I go about setting it up? Other than the Dreamweaver do we need to purchase anything else? :0) Jen --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!

Passing parameters :python script to Zsql method
by facelle＠libero.it 20 Jul '01

20 Jul '01

Hi everybody, I know this is a ricurrent newbie problem, and I have been searching the ML archives, but yet I could not solve it. How can I pass a parameter from a python script to a Zsql method ? I want to perform a very basic multiple value query on a database through the sql "selectwherein" command. I would split the REQUEST into a list, and then pass it to a Zsql method. I have the following Dtml document (named "form_itemSearch") : <form action="search" method="get"> <p>Please enter the following information:</p> Code : <input name="code:string"><br> <input type="submit" value=" Search "><br> </form> Then I have the following "search" dtml document : <dtml-call "process_input (code)"> <dtml-call "search_Item (code2=code1)"> And this is my "process_input" Python script (parameter :code) : import string code1 = string.split(code) return code1 And my "search_Item" zsql method (argument: code2 )is : select * from items where code_item in (<dtml-sqlvar code2 type=string>) If I call the first "form_itemSearch" from the web, I get the following error : Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: NameError Error Value: code1 Troubleshooting Suggestions * This resource may be trying to reference a nonexistent object or variable code1. * The URL may be incorrect. * The parameters passed to this resource may be incorrect. * A resource that this resource relies on may be encountering an error. For more detailed information about the error, please refer to the HTML source for this page. If the error persists please contact the site maintainer. Thank you for your patience. ----------------------------------- Where is my mistake ? Thanks in advance. Fabrizio C.
