You should try the zdp site (http://zdp.zope.org) especially the FAQ and the ZSnippets stuff, though it tends to be somewhat advanced (to say the least). Rik

Hi and thanks, I want to view images in a local fs on a web page so i have: <dtml-with images> <dtml-in images start=0 size=50 orphan=0 reverse> <img src="<dtml-var "(THE IMAGE ID'S)">"><br> </dtml-in> </dtml-with> I've read that I can get the filenames as id's by using getObject, but I can't seem to make it work.

Namespaces? DTML Methods? Properties? Oh my.
by Gary Perez 19 May '00

19 May '00

Hello all. First, a warning: I'm probably the newest of all Zope newbies. I'll do my best to formulate some semblance of an intelligent question. I'm having a namespace meltdown. Here's what's going on... I have a ZClass called "Company" which has attribute "id", and a ZClass called "Project" which has attribute "CompanyID" among others. I'm trying to call and render only those Projects that have a CompanyID that matches the Company object's "id" attribute. I'm doing this in the "index_html" of the Company ZClass by calling a DTML Method "retrieveCompanyProjects"... which resides in the folder "Company_List". Here's the pertinent tree structure: / Company_List/ Company1/ Company2/ retrieveCompanyProjects (DTML Method) Control Panel/ Products/ ASTi/ Company (ZClass) index_html Project (ZClass) Projects/ Project1/ Project2/ Now... the procedure is successful when rendering only those Projects that match a specific FSSession userid, as such: ## DTML Method 1 Excerpt: <dtml-in "Projects.retrieveUsersProjects(_.None, _)"> ## "retrieveUsersProjects" DTML Method Excerpt: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('list', [])"> <dtml-in "Projects.objectItems(['Project'])"> <dtml-with sequence-item> <dtml-if "Engineer == FSSession['userid']"> <dtml-let x=sequence-key> <dtml-call "list.append(absolute_url())"> </dtml-let> succeed <dtml-var ApplicationEngineer>, <dtml-var "this()"> <dtml-else> fail <dtml-var ApplicationEngineer> </dtml-if> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> ## I've tried to use the same mechanism in the "retrieveCompanyProjects" DTML Method, and here's where the namespace meltdown turns my brain to mush. Here's the "retrieveCompanyProjects" DTML Method, which (to reiterate) is called from the "index_html" method inside the Company ZClass: ## <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('list', [])"> <dtml-in "Projects.objectItems(['Project'])"> <dtml-with sequence-item> <dtml-if "CompanyID == COMPANY_ATTRIBUTE_NAMED_ID"> <dtml-let x=sequence-key> <dtml-call "list.append(absolute_url())"> </dtml-let> succeed <dtml-var CompanyID>, <dtml-var "this()"> <dtml-else> fail <dtml-var CompanyID> </dtml-if> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> <dtml-return "REQUEST['list']"> ## My problem is that I can't for the life of me figure out what to replace the "COMPANY_ATTRIBUTE_NAMED_ID" with in order to make it work. User-specific is easy... it's simply FSSession['userid']. Due to the position of the <dtml-if> following the <dtml-in>, however, I'm in the namespace of Projects, right? That being considered, the property "id" is at that point the "id" of the Project, and not of the Company anymore, no? How can I go out, and snag a Company's property "id" from within that namespace? Can I do a <dtml-with> ??? </dtml-with> to pop the Company namespace on the top of the stack & kick it out after getting the "id"? Or, alternatively, is there a way that I can pass the variable "id" from the Company namespace into the DTML method so it's there, recognized, and used to filter the Projects? Sorry this was so long, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm confused. Thanks, -Gary -- Gary Perez Advanced Simulation Technology, inc. http://www.asti-usa.com/

If the frameset is already displayed (i.e. the search form, too, is in the frameset), you may use the HTML 4.0 "target" attribute to tell the browser to display the return page in this "target" frame. I the result should go into a frame in a newly created frameset, you problably must use DTML to dynamically create the frame set and include the REQUEST parameters in the source url of your report page frame.

Zope SQL Database Connection
by joel grimes 19 May '00

19 May '00

<Beginner Question> I'm trying to add a database connection to a site (my first one). I tried adding a SQL Method and am told I need to add a Zope Database Connection. I can't find that in the list of available objects. Can someone direct me to a resource that explains how? It's not mentioned in the quick start guide. I'll be using an Access or SQL Server Database. Oh yeah...and what the heck is a Z Gadfly Database Connection? Thanks, Joel Grimes joelgrimes(a)hotmail.com ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
