Because it's type is not string, it is a user object. Compare 'Anonymous User' with AUTENTICATED_USER.getUserName() -Michel

AUTHENTICATED_USER?
by Guy Davis 12 Jan '00

12 Jan '00

I am trying to disallow anonymous access for all but a handful of domains. This is easy to do with Apache, but how can it be done with Zope? The only thing I could think of was to have the following in the standard_html_header. <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER == 'Anonymous User'" > {if remote address is acceptable} {show the true page} {else show an error message} <dtml-else> {show the true page} </dtml-if> However the above expression never evaluates to true even when <dtml-var AUTHENTICATED_USER> shows 'Anonymous User' on the same page. If I try to use string.find(), Zope complains that AUTHENTICATED_USER is a bad arguement. Is there someway to salvage what I'm doing, or better yet is there a simpler mechanism to achieve this goal? Thanks. -- Guy Davis mailto:davis@arc.ab.ca (403) 210-5334 Alberta Research Council

SQL LIKE
by cesare＠planningsrl.it 12 Jan '00

12 Jan '00

Hi all! I would like to do a form in which the user can edit few words (separated by a blank character). When the user press the "Search" button I would like to use those words to search in a field of a table. I have done it but I have two problems: 1) I use sqlgroup but I can use it just with the = and not with the LIKE statement select * from annunci <dtml-sqlgroup where> <dtml-sqltest Parola column=testo type=string optional> </dtml-sqlgroup> the result is: select * from annunci where Parola="Word" but I would like this result: select * from annunci where Parola LIKE "%Word%" 2) I am not able to divide the words in more conditions. I would like the following result: select * from annunci where testo LIKE "%FirstWord%" and testo LIKE "%SecondWord%" Thank you in advance, Cesare Cesare Raoss Planning srl Via Bolzano 45 38014 Gardolo (TN) cesare(a)planningsrl.it http://www.planningsrl.it

All of Zope's C code is ANSI and strictly Python module extensions, if LinuxPPC can compile python, it can compile Zope. If it doesn't, it's probably because there isn't a Python LinuxPPC makefile. Easy enough to fix. -Michel

employment opportunity

Impossible, Inc., a full service Internet design company, is looking to hire a talented, innovative web applications developer into a full time position. We specialize in highly interactive, high performance internet and intranet web applications for clients that include Cisco Systems, Time, CNN, the United Nations, and others. We are located in beautiful, sunny Santa Barbara, CA. We are looking for an engineer with several years of experience building applications on the web. Our primary platform is currently Zope, but we offer expertise with Cold Fusion, Apache modules, IIS/ASP, PHP, PERL (if we have to), and Java. Additionally, we provide database development in Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MS Acess, and BerkeleyDB. The position requires advanced Zope expertise, as well as an in-depth understanding of the HTTP protocol. At this time, we also require a reasonable familiarity with the Unix operating environment, preferably Linux. HTML skills are not a priority, but they do come in handy. Most importantly, a willingness and ability to learn new technologies very quickly is desired. Your academic pedigree is not important, and we are happy to hear from you, regardless of the level of your education. Impossible, Inc. is growing exceedingly quickly, and our workplace is currently a fairly high pressure environment. We try to offset that by having a lot of fun and enjoying the work that we do. The position includes stock options in a growing Internet startup, as well as reasonable salary and benefits. Of course, when you work at Impossible, you also get to live in the paradise that is Santa Barbara. If you think that you can contribute to the Impossible team, please send your resume to sgendler(a)impossible.com, or fax to the number listed below. Additionally, I am happy to hear from you by phone. The position is available immediately. --sam ------------------------ Sam Gendler Chief Technology Officer Impossible, Inc. 1222 State St. Suite 250 Santa Barbara, CA 93101 w: 805-560-0508 c: 805-689-1191 f: 805-560-0608

More REQUEST.set not incrementing SUCCESS!
by Jerry.Spicklemire＠IFLYATA.COM 12 Jan '00

12 Jan '00

Jeff Hoffman suggested the following code, that's quite a bit cleaner than what I came up with, and it also works quite well. <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('z_t', _.string.split(_.str(ZopeTime()))[0])"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_all', 0)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_logged', 0)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_today', 0)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_not', 0)"> <dtml-var u_all> <dtml-var u_logged> <dtml-var u_today><br> <dtml-in count_users_logged> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_all', u_all + 1)"> <dtml-if logged_on> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_logged', u_logged + 1)"> <dtml-if "_['z_t']==_.string.split(_.str(_.DateTime(logged_on)))[0]"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_today', u_today + 1)"> </dtml-if> <dtml-else> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_not', u_not + 1)"> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> I'm a bit mystified that the only detectable difference between this version and *many* that I tried without success looks to be the spaces between objects and keywords in expressions, along with the complete absence of <dtml-let>. e.g <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_logged', u_logged + 1)"> vs. <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('u_logged',u_logged+1)"> I've looked at lot's of code samples that have no spaces, and have seen enough error messages to think very hard about random spaces in expressions. This is a good example of how code lore (superstition) gets proliferated, but it's hard to argue with working examples. Thanks again, to Jeff, Jim, Pavlos, et. al. Jerry S.

Some installation knowledge, apache integration knowledge (rewrite rules, mostly) and system resource managment. No more so than any other type of long running process. Their objection would probably be more aesthetic than anything else, ie, Zope is 'alien' to them, especialy if they specialized in some other form of dynamic content like PHP. -Michel
