Product Creation and Permission
by Jason Joy 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hey there, I have a question regarding the use of permissions in Classes, regarding the creation of user-made Products for Zope. The product that I have is made from 2 classes, which for this example I will call classes A and B. From the management screen of Class A after you create a instance of it in Zope, it shows a list from a external database of instances of B. B does not get into the Zope Database at all. A's code has been modified in the manage_menu system such that it can add and subtract instances of B from the external database. It does this just fine. When selecting a instance of B (let's call it C), from the management menu of A, I keep getting asked to enter my password and can never get in, eventually getting it to say that I don't have permission to manage it or view it. I tried adding: security = ClassSecurityInfo() security.declareObjectPublic() security.setDefaultAccess('allow') security.__allow_access_to_unprotected_subobjects__ = 1 ... but it seemed to only grant me access to the index_html, bouncing me down to a lower level other than management. I think the problem is that Zope doesn't see B very well and I need to tell it how to manage it. Does anyone have any ideas how I can take this B object and give it access privledges so that I can manage it? I tried tinkering with __ac_permissions__ but I got locked out even further, not even index_html would come up. :) Any thoughts? Thanks.

Error on Zope download page
by Jerome Alet 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hi, Don't know if this is an error or not, here's what you can read from Zope's download page: Download Zope 2.3.2 the current stable release. Download Zope 2.3.2b2 the current development release. IMHO the devel release should have a version number greater than the stable one, or else I have misunderstood something about developpment for many years now ;-) bye, Jerome Alet - alet(a)unice.fr - http://cortex.unice.fr/~jerome Fac de Medecine de Nice http://wwwmed.unice.fr Tel: (+33) 4 93 37 76 30 Fax: (+33) 4 93 53 15 15 28 Avenue de Valombrose - 06107 NICE Cedex 2 - FRANCE

Announce: GreetingCard-0.2 (development)
by Ed Colmar 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hi Everyone! I am building zope based web tools for a printing company in Colorado, called Eight Days A Week. The management recently decided to open the source that I have been developing. One more victory for the freedom fighters! The first piece of code to near release quality is a greeting card toolkit. It uses zope for data storage, image upload, html generation, and management functionality. LocalFS and reportlab are used to generate PDF formatted high-resolution cards set up with cropmarks to print. The code is still Alpha quality with several areas where significant improvement can be made, but is functional as is. A demo is running here: http://www.8daw.com:8080/greetingcards/ (zope 2.3 : Mandrake 7.2 linux) You will not be able to use the PDF tools, unless you install it somewhere with management access. Hope you all like it! Please let me know if you find it useful, or make any changes. -ed-

I used my "DocFinder" product to quickly determine that "manage_renameObjects" is protected by "View management screens". An alternative would have been to look at the sources .... Dieter

Btw, ... its legal :-))) Apparently, your server wants to get a "POST" request. You will not get "POST" requests with simple "<a href...>" elements. These elements generate "GET" requests only. You may succeed with JavaScript, but I am not familiar enough to tell this for sure. Dieter

Calling dtml method from PythonScript, _.None, _ ?
by Brad Clements 02 May '01

02 May '01

I'm trying to eliminate query strings on my DHTML methods, to convert http://myhost.com/Products?productid=xyz into http://myhost.com/ProcessPath/xyz/ProductInfo.htm I've created a Python Script (2.3.2) that looks like this: --- target = traverse_subpath[-1] if target == 'ProductInfo.htm': container.Products(context,productid=traverse_subpath[0]) --- Also other variations of the function call, none work. basically I'm getting a KeyError in <standard_html_header> (called from Products) on 'bgcolor' where standard_html_header has <dtml-unless bgcolor> ... </dtml-unless> This code works when not passing through a Python Script call. What is the correct way to emulate a <dtml-var> call from a Python Script? Any idea why the dtml-unless fails when called indirectly through a python script? --- I know about the PathHandler product, but that doesn't quite fit my needs, my Python Script will be more complicated once I get this working.

What should happen with content can be configured. The configuration specifies how the various MIME types should be handled: shown internally, saved to disk, viewed through an external program. Of course, the default configuration of IE and Netscape need not be identical (that's what you see, apparently). Even Netscapes on different platforms have different configurations. You may want to look at your configuration. In my Linux Netscape 4.7 it is in "Edit Preferences -> Navigator -> Applications". Dieter

Image Content
by dave＠kovach.com 02 May '01

Hi - I have acouple questions regarding a photo content management system I am building as a tutorial to learn various aspects of Zope. So... I need some pointing in the right direction on the following... What is the most appropriate way to say add (5) containers of varying numbers of images without using the Zope management interface to manually add each one? I guess it might be possible to write a tool that iterates through a file directory and add an image element into a zope folder... or are there provisions already for this sorta thing? Also, if you want to give someone an easy interface to use to have access to adding/deleting photos in this scenario - would you have to build it? or is there something within Zope that allows a non-Zope'er to be able to access a form to do this maintenace? Any help or some pointing to what how-tos I should read would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.
