How can I use 'sequence-item' in <dtml-if> tag ?
by Anton A. Zotov 24 Mar '01

24 Mar '01

Hello again, How can I permit such an operation in DTML-method: (see pseudo-code): <dtml-in...> IF sequence-item EQUALS something then bla-bla-bla </dtml-in> I tried <dtml-if "sequence-item=='bla-bla'"> It won't work. Zope thinks sequence is a different variable. Thanks in advance Anton

simple DTML-VAR question for Images
by Jaymer 24 Mar '01

24 Mar '01

I'm having a brain fart... So, if I'm in my standard footer, for example, and I want to display an image, but the image is located in a SUBDIRECTORY, then how can I reference that Image Object since it is "below" my current path and the <DTML-var> acquisition stuff won't work? It makes sense to place all images in a common subdir, and I obviously don't want to hardcode the path into the footer. I've seen the way squishdot uses their advertising method, for example, to place a banner add and link at the top... but I don't want to do through all that. I'm sure I'm just missing a piece of syntax. tia, jaymer...

copying Data.fs
by Donald Braman 24 Mar '01

24 Mar '01

I'm trying to move a site from Linux to Win2000. Zope is installed and running on both. I shut down both zope servers. I copy the Data.fs file. I start up the Win2000 Zope server. It give me an error. Are there special tricks involved here? I haven't found documentation on platform migration...is there any? I'll send back more detailed error messages/logs if I'm following correct procedure. Don

How to pass values from python script back to calling dtml-method ???
by Anton A. Zotov 24 Mar '01

24 Mar '01

Greeting, people ! I may seem completely ignorant, but Zope namespaces are driving me wild for the last couple of days :-( I need to solve a pretty simple task: I have a dtml-method which calls a Python script. When that python script is through, it has a variable (say, returnValue="return value"). How can I access this variable in calling dtml method ? Please help !!!!

Broken Zope installation
by Mayers, Philip J 24 Mar '01

24 Mar '01

<Sigh> I appear to have a broken Zope installation. Some of the problems: 1) I have a set of PythonScripts and DTML methods which do the logic and presentation. All of the PythonScript can do this: print context.dtml_method(context,REQUEST,param1=data,param2=data) Fine. However, this site was imported from a previous installation. Any new PythonScripts (or any attempt to edit the existing ones) fail to do that, saying that: Error Type: TypeError Error Value: call of non-function (type list) I really don't think that the DTML method is of type list - this happens with old or new DTML methods, and old&modified or new PythonScripts alike. The weird part is that (provided you don't modify them) the old scripts work fine... 2) Restart or Shutdown from the Control Panel link fail with an error 5 (I/O error) - this only happens intermittently. I'm running the source release on RedHat 6.2 sparc - are there any architechtural issues? Cheers, Phil

How best to "filter" all HTML output?
by Kyler B. Laird 23 Mar '01

23 Mar '01

I would like to use a common filter for the HTML output of any object in a folder. I want users to upload whatever HTML they want (from whatever horrible HTML generator) but then I want to be able to modify the HTML that results from that object. As a simple example, I want to be able to replace whatever is in "<title>" with the title of the object. I don't want the user to have to think about this; it should just happen any time an object generates HTML. (I realize that templates will eventually do something similar, but it will require that the user invoke the functionality.) I've thought of some ways to do this poorly. It will be such a big part of what we're doing however, that it is worthwhile for me to find an elegant solution. (I've done similar things in Apache over the years, but Zope has the potential to do it *much* better.) BTW, this functionality is sometimes used by providers wanting to force advertisements on their users' pages. That's not what I'm doing, but it is similar. (I seek to provide consistent navigation tools.) When I look at "Folder w/Customizer Support" I feel like I'm probably staring at the answer, but I'm not getting far in understanding it. I'd like to know if that's the right direction. Any thoughts? Thank you. --kyler
