In standard Zope, your example reads: <dtml-if X> <a href="a_url"> </dtml-if> link text <dtml-if X> </a> <dtml-else> (no link available) </dtml-if> Dieter

"icon" is (in some way) part of Zope's management interface. Its value is used as the icon to the left of a description in the folders content view or the tree view. I fear, you have to rename you folder (e.g. to "Icon" or "icons") (or massively change Zope's code). Dieter

Try Ultraedit32 - its one of the best editors out theres for raw coding and text manipulation. It includes tag coloring and recognition for html, perl, c, vb, asp and other already - and the file 'wordlist.txt' it uses can be edited easily to add new tags or keywords, or to define whole new languages of tags and keywords. www.idmcomp.com ========================================= From: "Eric L. Walstad" <Eric(a)Walstads.net> Subject: [Zope] HTML Editors that recognize DTML (was bastardized form of XML) To: Paul Everitt <Paul(a)digicool.com> Cc: zope(a)zope.org Reply-to: Eric(a)Walstads.net // b. Make it possible for some HTML editors that can extend their tag // database to recognize DTML tags. Maybe this is a little off topic, but did you have an editor in mind when you changed the syntax? Can you recommend an HTML editor that runs on Windows that will do this? I am currently coding DTML in VisualC++'s IDE using VBScript to paste in the DTML. This method works OK, but if there is something better, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks, Eric.

Re: [Zope] Problem with date

The formats like Jan. 07, 2000 January 07 2000 jan 07 2000 2000/07/01 all work well in the version 1.2.2 which is a binary release. But, none of the format works with the version 1.2.6 which i had downloaded as source.

SiteAccess in 2.0.0b2?
by T.J. Mannos 23 Jun '00

23 Jun '00

I'm having trouble getting SiteAccess 2.0.0b2 to work with Zope 2.2.0b2. The first odd thing that happens is when I create a new SiteRoot, it says that this object already has a SiteRoot (which it doesn't), but creates it anyway. The second is: it doesn't seem to work at all! The value of URL1 still has the :9080 port and the wrong virtual server. Any ideas? - T.J.

Can not add Zope Tutorial with 2.2

Hi, in preparation for the LinuxTag 2000 i tried to add the Zope Tutorial to Zope 2.2.0b2 (and fresh CVS versions of the last three days) but i get the following error (i think it's the same error as Oleg mentioned): Error Type: TypeError Error Value: ('len() of unsized object', <class Shared.DC.ZRDB.DA.SQL at 85fb7e0>, None) Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 490, in manage_importObject (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.0b2-src/lib/python/ZODB/ExportImport.py, line 284, in importFile TypeError: (see above) Environment: FreeBSD 4.0-Stable, Python 1.5.2 Logged in as user with manager and owner rules.

Arch for future python project.
by Bryan Patrick Coleman 23 Jun '00

23 Jun '00

I have been planning and may have time to start codeing soon a UI library. I have a question about the exact nature of the archetecture I am going to use. The UI is going to display in text and graphicaly on the consol, X and in a browser ie netscape. Oh and Berlin too. There is either going to be an accompining "window manager" or it will be integrated into the library. So my choices as I see it are. - Target other library sets such as OpenAmulet and wxWindows. Posibly even mixing tool kits within the same application OR consentrate on using ggi and make whole new widgits. - The library is going to focus on dynamic UI's as well as skinable interfaces even if I don't integrate the window manager the applications will be able to manage them selves so should I just make it part of the same library? - leave controll of the user interface with the application or break it off and make it part of an interface server which would contain the window manager functionality as well. The end result is going to be somewhere between an XML viewer, MS's Active desktop, SWING or Pythons DynWin, Zope and enightenment :) Sort of a portable desktop that is dynamic and flexable. - Bryan Patrick Coleman UNCG bpcolema(a)uncg.edu http://www.uncg.edu/~bpcolema Octagram Linux octagram(a)excite.com http://octagram.sourceforge.net Questcon bcoleman(a)questcon.com http://www.questcon.com

permissions problem instantiating objects in 2.2b2?
by John Kinsella 23 Jun '00

23 Jun '00

Hi guys, I have a simple piece of code which instantiates an object in Zope 2.1.16, but when I try to run the same code in 2.2b{1,2} I get a dialog box stating that "authorization failed" and asks again for my password. I'm not sure if the API changed in 2.2 or if something's broken in either my code or the 2.2 tree...I'm more than open to suggestions. :) Here's what I'm trying to do: * Created a Product and dropped a ZClass into it, tweaked the constructor so it doesn't redirect when called from my code * Created a DTML method in a folder with reads as follows: <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['test']"> <dtml-call "testClass_add(_.None, _, NoRedir=1)"> </dtml-with> When I go to view that method, that's when i see the "authorization failed" stuff. Any ideas what's up? John
