Two Pythons and PIL module newbie question..
by Chris Beaumont 14 Apr '01

14 Apr '01

Hello, I'm sorry to ask such a dumbish newbie question.. I am using the Zope binary release on a Debian Linux system. Debian of course comes with its own Python, so now there are two Pythons on my server box. I recently installed PIL from a .deb, and now I am finding that my Zope installation can't see it. (I assume because my Zope's Python needs to be told where to look for it) What is the proper way (or configuration files I need to edit/link I need to create, etc?) to rectify this situation? Thank you! Also.. another related question.. is there any way the PIL could be available to both Pythons without a conflict, or having to install it again.. Thanks.. Chris

xml-rpc and objectIds
by Alex Verstraeten 14 Apr '01

14 Apr '01

when was the objectIds method removed from xml-rpc? I'm trying to do an xml-rpc based manager for zope, so I can browse, create, edit and delete any kind of object (dtml methods, python scripts, ZsqlMethods, etc) for browsing I need the objectIds method, but it doesnt seems to be available on zope 2.3.0 I'm using a patched xmlrpclib that supports basic http auth, so this is not an anonymous user trying to request the objectIds method, it's admin (owner/manager). but I get resource not found. If everything keeps this way I'll just use webdav for browsing and xml-rpc for editing/creating/deleting objects. now that I think about it... can I create any object using webdav? I mean, may I /manage_addProduct/OFSP/addDTMLMethod on dav? or will i require xml-rpc for it? thanks Alex

Are regular expression integrated in DTML in some way?
by Tony Tocco 13 Apr '01

13 Apr '01

It's unbelievable! I'm losing my MiNd! (And no I'm not selling furniture or used cars 8) I've spent the last 2 hours trying to find the answer to what I thought was a simple question. What is the simplest way to validate a form input date in the syntax of MM/DD/YYYY? I was thinking a simple regular expression would be ideal but I found no reference suggesting that regexp's are supported in DTML and you cannot import the regexp object in a Python script without creating a custom product/script and that seems too convoluted so that leads me to believe that there must be another way that I just haven't found yet. If you have a suggestion please let me know Regards, ttocco sindau2002(a)hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

Hello I am *curious* to hear what you all think about Zope, openSource and credits... Looking throught the list at http://www.zopezen.org/links I was surprisd to see the radio station 1010Wins listed: http://1010wins.com/ which looks like a fast food clone of http://cbsnewyork.com/ But 1010wins.com is very fast and good at what it does. Also a good commercial showcase for Zope in fact. Or would be.. Now www.zope.org is famous for not showing off its own products capabilites http://www.zope.org/Resources/CaseStudies = new form of anti-adverstising but this is ridiculous. 1010wins is not even listed on zope.org. And neither 1010Wins nor CBSNewYork carry even the tiniest Zope logo. In fact if you search for 'zope' on either you'll get this: <quote> Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: TypeError Error Value: expected integer key </quote> oops!! ...go on try it if you want a good laugh :-))) http://1010wins.com/search_results_html?bodyInput=zope http://cbsnewyork.com/search_results_html?bodyInput=zope At __least__ that should return a simple page which says: This site is made with Zope..blahblah Perhaps one could just build that in to ZCatalog as default Ok, so everyone was way too busy keeping the client happy to worrry about such trivia. And it is often easy enough to prove it is a zope site [==> /manage] But is it trivial for Zope to miss this? Surely a minimum reasonable requirement / idea is that real zope sites, especially those used in the commercial or media worlds should carry some kind of logo/Zope_id/promo somewhere, even if not loudly on the home page where screen_estate is at premium? On could try to argue that as in many work for hire situations, the client has no implicit obligation to credit individuals, expecially if the contract says so. But even the movies go to some effort to blip your name up there for couple of seconds at the end. What does Zope stand to gain or lose by not by encouraging some modest mimimum credit inclusive license? How does it affect does DC and this community likewise? Is it tacky/helpful/irrelevant/essential to promote Zope in this fashion? Isn't America already dead from logo-fatigue syndrome? I am not trying to beat up on anyone, and I am truly delighted that DC's priorities are work hard to succeed as a company while feeding a great open source project. Elegant potent engineering arriving soon with good stability, features amd documentation. Yes these do come before hype and promo. But it seems a shame that ther is not a little higher profile material to help everyone get gigs and win arguments for why trust Zope. What do you think? - Jason ___________________________________________________________ Jason CUNLIFFE = NOMADICS['Interactive Art and Technology']

Hi, I am using squishdot 1.0.0. I have some users who are moderators. I get them to manage a part of squishdot by manage_moderation. In this screen they also see al the other managementtabs but only the modarationtab is active. 1. Is there a way to hide the other managementtabs from these users? 2. Is there a way to hide the directory path that is displayed on top of the page? Thanks Frank Zorge

While over on the squeak list I carp about their wiki site's reliability, my own zwiki.org is up and down like a.. yoyo.. 2001-04-09 08:03:51 : back_up 2001-04-09 01:06:52 : down 2001-04-05 21:29:15 : back_up 2001-04-05 20:11:05 : down 2001-04-05 07:44:19 : back_up 2001-04-05 01:53:28 : down 2001-04-04 02:10:16 : back_up 2001-04-03 23:35:57 : down 2001-04-03 10:36:50 : back_up 2001-04-03 09:16:16 : down 2001-03-27 17:05:59 : back_up 2001-03-27 15:30:09 : down 2001-03-25 05:56:23 : back_up 2001-03-25 05:03:25 : down 2001-03-20 22:11:08 : back_up 2001-03-20 20:57:49 : down 2001-03-20 07:43:44 : back_up 2001-03-20 05:56:48 : down This seems to be an intermittent dns problem, but I don't know how to pinpoint it further. Has anyone out there run into problems reaching zwiki.org ? Can anyone help clarify the cause ? Many thanks - Simon

It would be more efficient to get http://zopeserver/p_/ZButton It's smaller (2.4k) than manage_copyright :) Troy -----Original Message----- From: Steve Drees [mailto:drees@the-bridge.net] Sent: Friday, April 13, 2001 11:46 AM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: RE: [Zope] creditshard > Try: http://www.zope.org/manage_copyright ... actually I wouldn't mind > turning that off but I'll live.
