Hello, I get a trailng "L" on smallint variables from ZSQL/MySQL on 2.1.4 (prod server) but not on 2.1.6 (developt server). I do remember a post some times ago about that, BUT i can't find it again on the archives despite my (weak ?) efforts.. Any info/tip would be great as the production 2.1.4 is not migrate right now.

Hi Dieter & all > The problem is, currently, not interesting enough for > me to analyse is seriously. I can well understand, I wish I could forget about it :( > If you know, that you add only "*.doc" files I add .doc, .zip, .exe (self-extracting zip), .pdf and .ppt ... so the quick and dirty route won't save me this time ..

Editing ZClasses properties as ContentManager
by Jean Jordaan 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Hi Zopers, In my ccDocClass / propertysheets / methods / edit_properties method, right after reindexing the changed instance like so: <dtml-call "propertysheets.ccDocProperties.manage_changeProperties(REQUEST)"> <dtml-call reindex_object> (from the How-To: Creating a CatalogAware ZClass Created by AlexR. Last modified on 1999/10/31.) I have the following: <FORM <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> ACTION="<dtml-var URL1>" <dtml-else> ACTION="edit_propertiesForm" </dtml-if> METHOD="GET"> Why do I get URL1 if I authenticate as the "superuser" (the user who installed Zope)? That user shouldn't have role ContentManager, should it? Is this some kind of IE (5.5) caching hassle? If I login as a different 'Manager' (defined in the root's acl_users folder), I get edit_propertiesForm as I'd expect. Another question: is there a good way to let a user login using only the builtin acl_users mechanism? Hmm, I think I answered my own question: Say <a href="confirmation">Login</a> and make the 'confirmation' method require authentication. (Now how do you do that again?) Ah well, g'night! -- jean (running Zope 2.1.6 on W2K)

Letting a content manager add ZClass instances
by Jean Jordaan 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Hi Zopers .. I want content managers to be able to add and edit ZClass instances without having to negotiate the Zope management interface. So I want them to visit the Add and Edit forms, but to be redirected back to where they were browsing. The best I could do was: in 'ccDocClass_add', the ccDocClass constructor, check the user: ............................................................ <dtml-if DestinationURL> <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('ContentManager')"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect( DestinationURL+'/index_html')"> <dtml-else> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect( DestinationURL+'/manage_workspace')"> </dtml-if> <dtml-else> ............................................................ I gave their user both 'ContentManager' and 'Manager' roles, as I couldn't figure out which permissions 'ContentManager' needed to have. I gave it all the ones I thought obvious, but was still being denied entrance. Is there anything here I could do 1000 times better? Yours, -- jean

I am using the Znolk Input Wizzard with postgresql tables. One of the variables in the table is an integer and can have null values. However, in the update and insert forms, if I attempt to leave the value null, I get the following error from Zope: "Invalid integer value for weight.bcs" The variable is defined throughout as :<dtml-var bcs null=""> Any help would be appreciated.

JavaScript help!
by Peter Be 13 Aug '00

13 Aug '00

Maybe not a Zope specific question but the problem arises only with Zope DTML. The documentEdit.dtml page in OFS has this little HTML: <TEXTAREA NAME="data:text" WRAP="Off" COLS="50" ROWS="20"></TEXTAREA> And what I want to do is trigger a JavaScript that replaces specific characters in the textarea box to others. I.e. Replace swedish ö with HTML: ö The problem is the name of the textarea box! It is called "name:text" If I replace the name of the textarea box to say "data", then my JavaScript works fine. I have tried to "eval" the box, but to no effect. Any ideas?? ---------- Here's the JavaScript source: <script language="JavaScript1.2">  </script> ----------- Here's the JavaScript error: invalid label. document.manage_edit_form.data:text ..................................................^

The site I am building will have many Zope dynamic componants, but also a good share of wrapped static HTML pages maintained by content contributors in Frontpage/Dreamweaver. I know that orphaned files and broken links *will* become a problem over time. There was a discussion of this issue recently in this list. Look into the list's archive for valuable hints. Dieter
