Hi Zope members, So now Atomasoft is up and running, working. Feel free to comment, and if you see some mistake/bad request/Scripts Errors/Server problems, just email to Help(a)Atomasoft.com I don't thinks there is problem because my supporters at my list made some test and checking.

One of the list elements is empty, there is no index "0". Try: <dtml-if "item[7:8] == '-'"> .... contains '-' as 8.th character .... </dtml-if> "item[7:8]" gives the 8.th character, if it exists, and otherwise the empty string. Dieter

E.g.: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('actions',1)"> <dtml-if "action == 'insert'"> ... insert ... <dtml-elif ... <dtml-else> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('actions',0)"> .... </dtml-fi> <dtml-if actions> .... updated order ..... </dtml-if> Probably, Zope should have a "dtml-set" which would allow to update a new "REQUEST.vars" directory. Many questions in this list would go away, if assignment could be done with an explicit dtml tag. Dieter

I think, this would be nice to have. Currently, I do not need it and therefore would not spend relevant time for it. Dieter

RE: [Zope] A Description with a Search Engine using the advanced ZCatalog program ?
by Chris McDonough 20 Jul '00

The ZCatalog doesn't return the actual object that is indexed. It returns a representation of the object in the form of a "brain" which you can use to reference the object. <dtml-in Catalog> <dtml-with sequence-item> <dtml-var "Catalog.getobject(data_record_id_).myMethod()"><br> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> This snippet iterates over all the results from a catalog and calls the myMethod() method on every one of the objects referenced by the returned results. "data_record_id_" is an attribute of the "brain" object returned from the catalog search. "getobject" is a method of the Catalog which returns the actual object referenced by the "data_record_id_". > -----Original Message----- > From: Jonathan Desp [mailto:jonathandesp@atomasoft.com] > Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2000 3:02 PM > To: zope zope zope > Subject: [Zope] A Description with a Search Engine using the advanced > ZCatalog program ? > > > > An accurate question here: > > I read the page: > > http://www.zope.org/Members/Zen/howto/AdvZCatalogSearching > > But I'm not able to understand very much, what is the section > where they are > talking about "a small description for every result" you are > getting from > the ZCatalog search engine ? > > My site is almost ready !

20 Jul '00

I hadn't anticipated Michel adding a link to the Product Developer's Guide project outline in the docs wiki into the Zope Weekly News this week (http://www.zope.org/Wikis/Docs/ProductDevelopersGuide) to all how-to writers, if you see your how-to referenced in there, it doesn't mean that we're just going to rip it off wholesale, we'll certainly ask your permission to use the content, and you'll be the decider.

A Description with a Search Engine using the advanced ZCatalog program ?

An accurate question here: I read the page: http://www.zope.org/Members/Zen/howto/AdvZCatalogSearching But I'm not able to understand very much, what is the section where they are talking about "a small description for every result" you are getting from the ZCatalog search engine ?

Reversing acquisition?
by zoper＠creative.isquare-asia.com 20 Jul '00

20 Jul '00

Hi All, Here's the situation I have a tree such that /index_html /text_object_1 /text_object_2 /subfolder/text_object_1 /subfolder/text_object_2 where content is: /index_html <dtml-var standard_html_header> <table> <tr><td><dtml-var text_object_1 fmt=structured-text></td></tr> <tr><td><dtml-var text_object_2 fmt=structured-text></td></tr> </table> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> /text_object_1 Just some text of text_object_1 /text_object_2 Just some text of text_object_1 /subfolder/text_object_1 Just some text which is different from /text_object_1 /subfolder/text_object_2 Just some text which is different from /text_object_2 The effect I would like to achieve is: when user access http://myserver/, content of /text_object_1 and /text_object_2 will be shown while user access http://myserver/subfolder/, content of /subfolder/text_object_1 and /subfolder/text_object_2 The point is that there's no index_html in /subfolder so /index_html will be acquested and by default it displays content of /text_object_1 and /text_object_2 The question is: we got text_object_1 and text_object_2 in /subfolder how could I let the acquested index_html in subfolder to use the objects inside the subfolder? If my desired effect could be achieved, that would be very useful as the whole site could use a master template at root, changing objects inside folder could show different content. While changing the root index_html will change the layout of the whole site Otherwise we have to put the same "index_html" inside every folder so that default view of folders will show their containing object content. If this is not easy, is there any other way to achieve the same effect? I don't want to use something like "http://myserver/?c=some_parameters" which is my current implementation (where site structured is not preserved or shown by URL) Thanks, Roger

NESTED IN STATEMENTS AND PASSING VARIABLES in DTML
by Theodore Patrick 20 Jul '00

20 Jul '00

What is the DTML syntax for nested in statements. Here is an example. ________________________________________ EXAMPLE 1: NO VARIABLE PASSING GOAL: loop 4 times and with each loop run the category_method and print out the results: <dtml-in "1,2,3,4"> <dtml-in "category_method(id='1')" size=100 start=query_start> id=<dtml-var id>&seq=<dtml-var seq>&vid=<dtml-var vid> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> WORKS! ________________________________________ EXAMPLE 2: VARIABLE PASSING GOAL: Loop in the active_category_method and for each row run the category_method passing a new 'id' variable and print out the results. <dtml-in "active_category_method()"> <dtml-in "category_method()" size=100 start=query_start> id=<dtml-var id>&seq=<dtml-var seq>&vid=<dtml-var vid> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> ERROR --> ID is not being passed to "category_method()" ________________________________________ Anyone have a solution out there? NOTE: active_category_method and category_method are SQL METHODS. Where 'id' is and SQL_VAR for category_method. Thanks in advance! Theodore E. Patrick Ishophere.com

On my linux box, I add another alias to the same IP in /etc/hosts for a separate user. I also switch between localhost and my hostname for a server on my own box. This also works for cookies.
