so i have a query established. i do a search on my site and get 20 results. my return pages shows me 10 and tells me "next" to view the next 10. well, i hit next and it as if the search forgot what it was doing. my return page now has every document on site. i am passing the qs string but that doesn't seem to matter. is there something else i am not passing that i should be? (if anyone know where i read the docs on this that would be great - i could not find any on zope.org.) thanks, kyle

Return values for html display?
by jiva＠devware.com 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

So, I have set up some external methods that do some stuff, and I ultimately want to display html from them. However, I find the only way I can do this is to return it from my function. print() seems only to send it to the zserver log. Soooo, my question is, is this by design? Is there some way to get print() to actually shoot html to the page the end user sees? Is there a reason I wouldn't want to do this? -- "Most of us, when all is said and done, like what we like and make up reasons for it afterwards." -- Soren F. Petersen

<dtml-if> no-work
by Anders Gaarsdal Holst 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

Hi! I have now run into yet another problem on my way to Zope nirvana: I have the following expression: <dtml-var personelID> = <dtml-var personelID_page> <dtml-if "personelID == personelID_page"> .......................... It prints for instance: 1 = 1 But even though it prints that the two vars equals each other, it does not execute the <dtml-if> statement. Is this caused by a integer / string problem? Regards, A n d e r s G a a r s d a l H o l s t

DTML-IN Next question
by Joshua Brauer 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

I've got a photo gallery setup and want a way to preload the next image. Currently the "gallery" page iterates over the folder and posts the pictures. I'm using the code below to try and have it load the next image, but without success. (On a seperate note how do I get the ID of the item within the dtml-in construct. document_id returns the ID of the current document so I've set ID's=titles and use the title in this instance.) <dtml-in "objectItems(['Image'])" next size=1 start=qs orphan=1 sort="monthorder"> <dtml-in next-batch> <IMG SRC="monthPhoto/<dtml-var title>" HEIGHT="<dtml-var batch-start-var-height>" width="<dtml-var batch-start-var-width>"> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> ___________________________________________ Joshua Brauer joshua(a)brauer.org http://www.brauer.org ___________________________________________

SSL?
by Rodrigo Ernesto De Leon Plicet 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

--- Please reply to my e-mail address --- Hello, does anyone know if ZServer will ever have SSL support? Right now, I believe it doesn't have SSL support, and my boss says that's a no-no for implementing any type of transactional app (E-Commerce stuff) we might develop; he already sold his soul to M$ (IIS/ASP sucks). Anyone knows when SSL might be implemented? - Rodrigo _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Image properties?
by Carsten Wartmann 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

Hello, I tried to add an image and then add an property "align" with the value "right". But this doesn´t shows in the by Zope produced html-source. Isn´t this the right way? Also I mention that after deleting the "height" property I cant add this again: Error Type: Bad Request Error Value: Invalid or duplicate property id Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 179, in publish File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 201, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: cover) File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 165, in publish File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_addProperty) File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: manage_addProperty) File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/PropertyManager.py, line 272, in manage_addProperty (Object: cover) File /usr/local2/Zope-2.0.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/PropertyManager.py, line 207, in _setProperty (Object: cover) Bad Request: (see above) Am I wrong or is there a bug in my zope installation?

WebDav wishful thinking WEBCR ideas.questions
by Jason Cunliffe 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

Hello Perhaps this message is off-Zope topic perhaps not. I am looking at an application area and wondering about the direction Digital Creations and zope are taking and whether they fit the idea... I confess I don't understand this WebDav stuff yet. But reading about it has got me dreaming again on a favorite theme: choreography and temporal-spatial indexing of networked information Comments about WebDav enabled browsers, plus recent announcement MS and Digital Creations.Zope getting stronger in sync make me wonder what they are capable of, suitable for. Is it possible for make a drg'n'drop page in Zope which would allow for fast and efficient building of web pages> For example where there are many links and lists. The immediate pragmatic application is the endless need to compile pages of web-related research with href links and build this quickly among a group of people over the web. I often end after a session up with 20+ good web pages open for some given area of research topic. Typically I add these to 'favorites' and do some fast cut'n'paste into emails to send to colleagues. If I get unlucky the whole system crashed before I have the time or energy to organize it nicely in to a web page or print out etc. What I want to do is drag'n'drop from the already open pages onto a Zope page and then the following actions will automatically occur: 1. Title and href link will be added 2. any selected text on the page will be copied as well under href link 3. An email will be sent alerting users 'subscribed' to this page of new links and/or update notice 4. The newly added links can be highlighted automatically or identified with some icon or text attribute and remain like this until more are added 5. Users can add to the links and their user_id will be tagged and timestamped next to it 6. Statistics can be gathered which allow to review which links have been accessed [through this site of course] by whom and how often etc. ie for group learning or research it is easy to determine use, interest etc. 7. Finally I wan to record and playback a 'research thread' so that I can visit a set of pages in a certain order, perhaps add some comments and then store or send this thread to others so that when they play it back in effect they can be guided through my web journey. Basic 'WEBCR' navbar controls should allow pause rewind, annotate, and branch etc. This can then be linked to systems such a Conversa [http://www.conversa.com] to allow a smooth bridge between research and training. Say on an intranet, or some course context, students, trainees could play through rapidly prepared web-based materials. But instead of requiring very intensive pre-paration of materials one could offer fast, affordable and dynamic site building which uses the existing and changing web resource to best effect. SMIL protocol might be one way to handle annotations and timing and could link in nicely because of Python implementations. But even without this a simple timing mechanisms could be built in Zope using Python External Methods. Checking for cached pages would be useful to allow more reliable service. XML and cataloguing tools could be of great service. Perhaps WebDav has nothing to do with it.. if so please enlighten me.. The basic problem I am tackling is that if I want to explain and refer to a load of interesting stuff I have found on the web, I can often best do it by sitting someone down next to me and take them for a 'guided tour'. Failing that I can send them an email with URLs and handy comments, but immediately they lose the rhythm and sense of priority. Group sessions are even harder. And I have no way of knowing how far the y got or whether they jumped off or got lost or what. And even with the best of intentions, it is hard for them to relay replay for me what they did, where they went and saw.. Serendipity is very valuable in web surfing, but so too are reliably shared experiences. It is this last which I am concerned about now. As more and more resources, help files, training, docs etc are HTML or XML based, I believe the need will grow to create a navigable web-tree which can be stored, recorded, replayed, etc. Your comments welcome - Jason ------------------------------------------------- Jason Cunliffe <jasonic(a)nomadicsltd.com> NOMADICS.STUDIO(Design Director) Geo-Digital Arts and Technology Le Vieux Moulin, Route de Mons 83440 SEILLANS, FRANCE Tel: +33 (0)4 94.76.98.72 Fax: +33 (0)4 94.76.97.77

What's wrong with my FastCgi??
by Jochen Haeberle 05 Dec '99

05 Dec '99

Hello list, two days ago, I posted the following message. Unfortunately, no one responded... I guess someone on this list has seen such message before and could direct me where to look for, as I still think I did everything as told... the only thing I could see is that my Document Root does not point to a directory beneath server root, but I can't think that that's the problem... Please someone help me... >I am having problem installing Zope 2.1.0 along apache 1.3.9 using >FastCg on Linuxi. I followed the instructions step by step, got the >FastCgi SnapShot and did everything as told.... > >Zope is running using ZServer and is accessible on its own port (is >this correct when I intend to run it through FastCgi???), it creates >the sock-file.
