Problem with _[xyz]
by Christian Zagrodnick 07 Jul '00

07 Jul '00

Hi all, shouldn't <dtml-var xyz> and <dtml-var "_['xyz']"> return the same result? Well - I don't know why but only the 1st is working. (top.German.ActualPages is a folder; tThisIs... is a dtml-method) 1: <dtml-with "top.German.ActualPages"> <dtml-var tThisIsTheXYZDocument> </dtml-with> 2: <dtml-with "_['top.German.ActualPages']"> <dtml-var tThisIsTheXYZDocument> </dtml-with> Of course I want to replace the 'top.German.ActualPages' with a variable... but since it doesn't work with a hardcoded string it'll not work with a variable. Any hint? Thanks -- Christian Zagrodnick - Progressive Media Production http://www.promp.de/ Die Haftung ist auf das Gesellschaftsvermoegen beschraenkt.

ANNOUNCE ZEO 0.2.1
by Jim Fulton 07 Jul '00

07 Jul '00

A new release of Zope Enterprise Objects (ZEO) is available at http://www.zope.org/Products/ZEO. ZEO turns the Zope object system into a distributed architecture, allowing multiple processors, machines, and networks to act as one website. This release fixes two bugs in release 0.2: - ZEO clients didn't work properly (effectively at all) on Solaris or Windows NT. - An error in the handling of the distributed transaction lock could cause a client to stop writing and eventually hang if two clients tried to commit a transaction at the same time. - Extra (harmless) messages were sent from the server when invalidating objects during a commit. - New protocols (especially 'loadSerial'), used for looking at DTML historical versions, were not implemented.

Unquoting a string.
by Gregory Haley 07 Jul '00

07 Jul '00

Hi, I am trying to pass a column id through a ZMySQL method call. The thing looks like this: UPDATE venapoll SET <dtml-sqlvar resp type=string> = last_insert_id(+1) WHERE poll_num = 3; where resp is a value passed in by a dtml method and can have the value of resp0, resp1, resp3, etc. These are the names of columns. Zope is blowing chuncks, because the parsed call is actually: SET 'resp1' = last_insert_id(+1) and ZMySQL needs to have the value passed in as SET resp1 = . . . (i.e., without the quotes). Has anyone had a problem with this? TIA. ciao! greg. Gregory Haley venaca.com

Number of zope processes on Linux and OpenBSD
by Ragnar Beer 07 Jul '00

07 Jul '00

Howdy! I have a question concerning the number of running zope processes: I used to run Zope under Linux and there was always more than a handful of zope processes running. Now I switched to OpenBSD and there is only one. How comes? I guess the more zope processes I have running the more requests I can satisfy? --Ragnar

You have two options: 1) To get a list of roles - <dtml-var "AUTHENTICATED_USER.getRoles()"> 2) To check if they have a specific role - <dtml-var "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('role_name')"> Hope this helps.

Re: [Zope] Is Zope slow?

Well, i do agree that Zope seems to offer more features (from the case studies, and this mailing list i have read so far). I have played with PHP in my previous project, programming by using classes(object-oriented), though OOP support in PHP is not extensive yet. So far the codes are still maintainable, but a lot of things i have to "mix-and-match" myself if i want to include features like authentication/session tracking, templates, etc. That's why i'm looking at Zope for the possibility of a better solution. >What I *would* suggest focusing on is can Zope provide you with >the right amount of features and functionality and can you >scale it?

Well, i don't think my site will ever get that much hits:) Anyway, i check out Digicool website on this ZEO thing, and it seems that they charge abt $25,000 for this product alone(+consulting)? Not to belittle their effort, but that's a huge amount of money, considering that everything nowadays is "open-source":). Or did i interpret it wrongly?

RE: [Zope] Redirect Back
by Chris McDonough 07 Jul '00

You may either use Javascript's history method or use RESPONSE.REDIRECT(REQUEST['HTTP_REFERER']). The former is preferred as the latter isn't always accurate nor available. > -----Original Message----- > From: Aaron Williamson [mailto:aaronw@c.ict.om.org] > Sent: Friday, July 07, 2000 11:45 AM > To: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: [Zope] Redirect Back > > > Does anyone know if RESPONSE.redirect() can somehow be used > to send the > user "back," like they clicked the back button on the browser? > > Thanks, > > Aaron Williamson > Operation Mobilisation > aaronw(a)c.ict.om.org > > > _______________________________________________ > Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope > ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** > (Related lists - > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) >

DTML method to add a folder and put image inside
by John Verzani 07 Jul '00

07 Jul '00

Zope has me stumped. I want to make a _simple_ form and process to add a folder then insert into that folder some properties and an image. Here is what I am trying with my DTML method for processing the form request: <dtml-call "manage_addFolder(REQUEST['id'],REQUEST['title'])"> <dtml-with "REQUEST['id']"> <dtml-if image> <dtml-call "manage_addImage('image',image)"> </dtml-if> <dtml-call "manage_addProperty('example',example,'text')"> </dtml-with> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect(URL1+'/manage_workspace')"> I thought by using the <dtml-with> and the folder id that the subsequent manaage_add* would add to the newly created folder. I know I'm on the right track for when I hardcode the folder name (replace REQUEST['id'] with a string) what I want to do works.
