I have problems with my Zcatalog PDFcatalog with 'tp1' 'tp2' 'tp3' 'tp4' what are PDFdoc (myZclass) with juste as property 'title' and 'author' : I don't understand the behaviour of zope : <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-in PDFcatalog size=50 start=query_start> <dtml-with id> <dtml-var id>, <dtml-var titre><br> <dtml-var auteur> </dtml-with> <dtml-with tp4> <dtml-var id>, <dtml-var titre><br> <dtml-var auteur> </dtml-with> <dtml-else> There was no data matching this query. </dtml-in> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> and I get: tp1, | | tp2, | ¦==== why is there no 'titre' no 'auteur'? tp3, | | tp4, | tp4,titre4 auteur4 The two <dtml-with> block seems to be equal ... I wonder ??????? I think there a link error between Zclass/Zcatalog =>I added CatalogAware, and try every how-to, but I can't index automatically my catalog .... need some help ....

RE: [Zope] asp request and response objects
by David Kovach 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

That is a good solution with the hidden frame - again, I think the Zope management tool is useful and it works and I know alot of the same functionality could be duplicated in a different (or similar to the edit tool you provide your users) gui implementation - what would be great is integration within HTML/XML editors. Arent there movements going on here with GoLive and Dreamweaver? On the other ASP note - what ASP concepts do you think would be the top 5 that would need to be depicted under the Zope Way? I think: 1. Form submission and Form Response via ASP 2. Dynamic content (like time and date - something simple) placed in a page 3. SQL connection object and subsequent SQL call 4. Page Redirection and passing of form field or hidden data (state) 5. Reading in attributes from an offline configuration page (asp page) to set the values of an online page - like bgcolor,etc. Probably many of these are done a different way altogether and some of which arent the preferred way to do things with ZOPE (like even using a SQL db). But, idea is to look at ASP concepts - describe em in Zope terms. and show how they can be accomplished more effectively and efficiently with ZOPE.

LOL: ) I downloaded http://mwr.ddts.net/a/mwr/zope_2.3.1-1_i386.deb then tried to install it. ~# dpkg -i /home/someuser/zope_2.3.1-1_i386.deb dpkg : error package architecture (i386) does not match system (powerpc) So python byte-code is NOT cross architecture?

more dtml-in and content negotiation
by Kai Hofmann 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

Its me again, asking stupid questions I havent found answers within the docs :( Is it possible to extend the <dtml-in "sub.objectValues()"> <h2><dtml-var title></h2> <dtml-var sequence-item> </dtml-in> code a little, so that will only display objects ending in "_de" or "_en" ? Is there a kind of "content-negotiation" like I use it with Apache and plain html files: index.html.de index.html.en and apache picks out the correct one depending on the users browser prefs - is that possible with zope too?

How to call image metadata using LocalFS?
by Ausum 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

When iterating over image files within a LocalFS folder, I'd like to expose their width and height sizes. Although LocalFS file objects can't store user-defined metadata for the time being, it's possible to see an image's width and height values at its properties tab. I've read the how to on "Using DTML With Local File System Objects" but I couldn't find the solution there. Is it possible to call the width and height values of an image item, from a LocalFs iterate procedure? Thanks in advance, Ausum

mysterious problem
by sharlynn 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

I am using a Winbook Si notebook computer, with IE 5.5, and zope 2.3.0. My computer runs zope, recognizes my hostname, and port #... but will not allow me to access the Management Interface with the passwords i have CAREFULLY entered in zope set up/installation. I have reinstalled zope several times, have changed my IP address, have purchased a network card...all to no avail. I have had this exact problem every single time i have tried to access the management interface, regardless of the problem solving done. If you have any ideas, suggestions, brainstorms...I would greatly appreciate it. The following text is the error message I receive after unsuccessfully entering my user name and password at the management interface prompt.

Iterative Insertion via the dtml-in tag
by David Elfstrom 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

Hello, I've been working my way through the tutorial and documentation, and I found the section on "Iterative Insertion, the dtml-in tag" to be very eye-opening: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Guides/DTML-HTML/DTML.7.html It's been my first eye-opener to the real power of Zope. Now, when I go to the root of the above document, apparently this information has been depreciated. My questions: 1) where is a newer version of this same example page? The newer docs don't seem to cover the dtml-in tag with such a great example, to such depth. 2) is there a single .html file for the above depreciated documentation, so I can print it out easily? Thanks muchly! David

Unsightly data.fs buildup?
by Tony Tocco 25 Apr '01

25 Apr '01

While adjusting security and roles I noticed some behavior that concerns me a little. If you create a new role, assign it some rights, delete that role, then recreate a new role with that same name, it retains the rights of the deleted role. This same behavior is exhibited when you pack and restart as well so that means that somewhere in the object database, junk is not being garbage collected when you remove roles. Is there an easy way to remove this information? Are there other scenarios like this that might cause the system to gather useless data?

What about the difference between "sequence-step-end-index" and "sequence-step-start-index"?
