still bad perception of Zope about security
by Jerome Alet 26 Jun '01

26 Jun '01

Hi, I've just asked to an ISP of a website I maintain if he planned to provide Zope hosting in a near future. The answer was basically: ... Maybe but not yet, because there are still important security problems with Zope, according to securityfocus ... We can do that on dedicated servers but not on shared ones... So I've told him that no exploit was known, according to this mailing list and the recent thread on this subject, and that it was probably because DC takes security with care and often announce security problems as big threats even if there's a very small chance for them to be exploited. However I'm sure he will not be convinced by such a short reply. So I think something has to be done to restore Zope confidence around ISPs, but unfortunately I don't know what. bye, Jerome Alet

select_question

Hello , I have a folder 'project' with some subfolders (the projects). The subfolders have different properties. Now I created a form in which I can include new properties for a new subfolder. A DTML-method called 'project_prozessor' adds this new subfolder with its new properties to folder 'project'. Now my problem : I want to create a selection list with all my subfolders from folder 'project' and when I click on a subfolder, the properties which belong to my selected folder should be in the parts of the form , now. How can I generate my side with the form new? I don't know how can I realize it? I only want to do this with DTML-Syntax not with properties.sheets or so. I would be very happy about your answer. best regards kathrin

A tale of two systems....
by Michael Sullivan 25 Jun '01

Is there an up-to-date, cogent, step by step information on hooking up a MySQL database to Zope in Windows? The documentation I have seen is Linux-centric in a rather dogmatic fashion. While I use and love Linux at home, at work i must use Windows. We are currently testing several possible application tools - ColdFusion, PHP4 and hopefully Zope. ColdFusion and PHP4 are up and running but even after screwing around for a whole day I can't access a MySQL database with Zope. It's quite frustrating as the Zope "concept" is quite attractive. However, it is quite arcane install-wise on the Windows platform and very poorly documented in comparison to the other products when it comes to database setup. By contrast, I got MySQL on Zope up and running on my Debian Gnu Linux machine at home with one apt-get command, walked away for a few minutes and there it was, ready to use... Now, is this a comment on Windows vs Linux or on the quality of installation / implementation on the Windows side of Zope? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Retrieving ans processing multiple list selections
by Sabine_Ritter＠t-online.de 25 Jun '01

25 Jun '01

Hi there, I am using a form with several drop-down lists which allow multiple options to be selected. example: <select name="country" size="8" multiple> <option selected value="">entire Europe <option value="1">France <option value="2">Germany ..................... <option value="15">Denmark <option value="16">Spain </select> The selections are used in an ZSQL-Method: SELECT x, y, COUNT(lfdnr) AS Anzahl FROM table <dtml-sqlgroup where> <dtml-sqltest country type=int multiple optional> <dtml-and> .................... </dtml-sqlgroup> GROUP BY x, y, z The result of the ZSQL-Method is shown on a report page with <dtml-in ZSQL-Method size=50 start=query_start> ...................... Before displaying the result of the query I would like to summarize the selection like: "You have selected: country: France and Denmark age-group: 10-14 years and 15-19 years ----- Here is the result of your query: <table> As long as only one option is selected is can use <dtml-if expr="country=='1'"> France <dtml-elif expr="country=='2'"> Germany .................... However, if multiple options are selected, <dtml-var bl> will return a list of values like ['3','4','6'] and the above 'translation' doesn't work any more. Q u e s t i o n: How can I process ('translate') the list-values? Is there a way to directly adress the option text??? Thanks for supporting a real Newbie Sabine One more question: can anybody tell me, where I can get more information about all this "" , ' ', [' '], _.[ ()] stuff ? (meaning and proper use of it)

skip_unautorized is based on what permission?
by Jean Lagarde 25 Jun '01

25 Jun '01

Good day, I was hoping to be able to simply control what buttons get displayed on a form, depending on user roles, by using the skip_unauthorized attribute of dtml-in. I have not been able to make it work so far, so I would appreciate some help. The dtml-in statement is: <dtml-in "problemTable.objectItems('formButton')" skip_unauthorized> where formButton is a ZClass I defined. I would like to restrict permissions to some of my buttons to certain roles, so that they only get displayed when the user has the relevant role. I thought that using skip_unauthorized would be easier than adding tests on the user in my own code (why add more code if built-in facilities can do what I need). I have tried to change the 'View' and the 'Access contents information' permissions for my button objects, but neither does what I would hope. 'Access contents information' seems to do nothing at all, and 'View' pops the login panel, which I assumes happens within the body of the dtml-in. I can't see what other permission to change within the available list, to make dtml-in skip the object. Any clue? Cheers, Jean
