- Zope - Zope lists

My First Tweak
by Ben Ocean 18 Feb '01

18 Feb '01

Hi; I'm tweaking *Build a Searchable Job Board*. http://www.zope.org/Members/mukhsein/job_board_howto I need to create a pull-down list for those who want to enter data and those who want to select among entries. I want this pull-down list to obtain its elements from a foreign source (within Zope). Here are the particulars: Off the doc root (in Zope) there is a folder, let's call it *MyFirstFolder*. Within *MyFirstFolder is *Catalog*. Within *Catalog* is *entries*. Within *entries* is *entry_addForm*. In *entry_addForm* is the ZTML to be displayed, including where I would like to put my loop sequence to create a selection of options, pulling data from another file. This other file will be closer to the doc root, so acquisition *should* work, however... Within *Products* is *Classifieds*. Within *Classifieds* is *classifieds_entry*, which has a property sheet which has a method called *content_html* that references the variable referenced in *entry_addForm* that I need to turn into the aforementioned pull-down list obtained from the foreign source. Boy, I hope I've made that clear. Can you help? TIA, BenO

Re: DirtyWordsFilter

[jasonc(a)bigfoot.com] | how do I use ZCatalog to store all the words I want filtered and how | would I run this script on a string from a form? That depends on how you want it to interact with your application, I guess. But, as an easy way out, you could run the dirtyword-filter before you add the text to your objects. If you want to store all the words in ZCatalog you could just index a bunch of words (bad words, with meta_type set to 'bad_word') and do searches; (untested!) aString = 'lots and lots of angry-customer-bad-words' for word in string.split(aString, ' '): for catalog_brain in self.Catalog.searchResults(meta_type='bad_word'): bad_word = self.Catalog.getobject(catalog_brain['data_record_id_']) if word == bad_word: aString = string.replace(aString, word, '*bleep!*') return aString Add this as a Python Script in your Zope instance, make sure it can reach the ZCatalog (here named Catalog) by acquisition or directly, and call this script for every string that will be added to your objects. There are tons of caveats with this model. F ex, it doesn't catch up on words like 'b a d w o r d'. You could try to do something intelligent with it. Hm. Someone has probebly done this before you, in Perl or something, look at their algorithm. Another thing is that it is highly unoptimized, and could be slow (relatively speaking). If you want to use the stop-word list; lib/python/SearchIndex/Lexicon.py, line 128 (in Zope 2.2.1) has a method called set_stop_syn(), this might be what you want to use, although I wouldn't how to. On closer inspection I see that at the bottom of that file, a stop_words tuple is defined; a really, really ugly way to solve this would be to add your words there; around line 191. Also, to be really sophisticated (albeit, with a larger percentage change of also bleeping some words that shouldn't be bleeped; ie. they weren't bad words) you could use the soundex Python module. If you're doing this to remove stuff like the SCRIPT tag, REQUEST calls and those kind of things, I wouldn't recommend using soundex - obviously. Hope this helps!

What's This?

Hi, I keep getting this error. I'm trying to determine if it means anything. (I recently moved my server and I *thought* I finally got rid of the old hostname stuff. The new stuff is appearing in the printout following *hostname*.) >>> 2001-02-17T19:42:15 PROBLEM(100) ZServer Computing default hostname <<< Also, for some reason my Zope server keeps shutting down and I continually have to re-start it (like every couple of hours). Any ideas on that one? TIA, BenO
