PythonMethods and import
by Jay, Dylan 14 Sep '99

Python methods look really nice however why remove the use of import. I guess this is a security hazard and allows access to the filesystem but it also allows the use of many very usefull packages that to use mean the messyness of creating external methods.

Zope.app() you call it to get a 'connection' object to the database. -Michel

A quickie on properties
by Fredrick Rybarczyk 14 Sep '99

Hello out there. Could anyone please tell me about how to create a property that contains a list? So far I've been using the token "type" for my lists but right now I need some whitespace within my listitems and I don't know how to escape them. ["pelle bulle", "nisse", "et cetera"] I also need to know what 'selection' and 'multiple selection' are. Pretty please with sugar on top?

I think the who-dunnit information is just used for logging purposes and then whacked. This would need to be investigated further. -Michel

Is 'name' in your meta-data table? if it isn't, then: <dtml-var name> in the report document will look up the form element 'name', which is just the word you searched for. -Michel

Hi everyone, I hope someone could be able to help me here. I have quite a few people working out with me on a website I am creating. I would like to be able to track who last modified a certain page (not really a 'big brother' thing just useful). I was wondering if there was a way to be able to find out who last modified a page. Thanks, Benno

Or by using ssh to port forward through to the zope host, and doing all management connections through it... (and as an added advantage, because http-over-ssh doesn't have 'https' in the URL, the browsers will actually cache images. Hurrah!)

You would have to create a ZClass that mimiced your 'document' and tracked that information manually. -Michel

Try starting Zope with one thread (run z2.py with a '-t 1' argument. If this doesn't solve it, enter your Zope/lib/python directory and run python1.5.2: [michel@korak python]$ python1.5.2 Python 1.5.2 (#1, Jul 5 1999, 14:47:37) [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs- on linux2 Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam ## import the zope system Py$ import Zope, ZPublisher ## make a request...
