Hi all, I'm testing an external method which adds a folder and then adds a document to that folder and this happens when opening the tree in the management interface on that folder's parent: Illegal State Sorry, a Zope error occurred. Traceback (innermost last): File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 256, in publish_module File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 161, in publish File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 154, in mapply (Object: manage_menu) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 98, in call_object (Object: manage_menu) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/App/special_dtml.py, line 120, in __call__ (Object: manage_menu) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 514, in __call__ (Object: manage_menu) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/TreeDisplay/TreeTag.py, line 154, in render (Object: a tree tag) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/TreeDisplay/TreeTag.py, line 221, in tpRender (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File /root/t/Zope/lib/python/TreeDisplay/TreeTag.py, line 607, in decode_seq Illegal State: ['\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\001', '\000\000\000\000\000\000\003*'] Any ideas?

Yes, version 2.0.0a2 has a bug which requires that you make this setting manually. This should be fixed so that when you create a Property Sheet, it automatically maps "Manage properties" on the Property Sheet to "Manage properties" on the Z Class. Thanks for the note. I'll add a note to the tutorial down load to mention this and a few other 2.0.0a2 issues. Thanks! -Amos -- Amos Latteier mailto:amos@digicool.com Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com

Re: [Zope] Newbie Q: Passing REQUEST.form data to a Z SQL Method

Great -- this is just what I needed! I suppose the Zope Zen is that I can call Z SQL Methods within appropriate DTML tags *and* pass arguments to the methods in the tags. For some reason this was not clear to me from the docs. Thanks for the clarification.

It was a maintenance mess. We had a Zope porting kit which was a realy administrative burden, so now we have only three binary platforms. Linux2, Win32, and Solaris. Your welcome to package your own binaries and distribute them (not in violation of the license, of course ;) for your platform of choice, and we will put them up on our unsupported software pages. > > If someone gives me a few pointers I would love to contribute > a Solaris > binary dist myself... that's Ok, the only reason why there isn't one is we forgot.

What it sounds like you want to do is call a ZSQL method and format the data in your own way. This does not require you writing 'handlers', this can be done in straight DTML. <ul>  <li> gets paid </li>  </ul> ZSQL methods return sequences of results. The results are rows in the database which match your SQL query. Given this, you can impliment an HTML form which collects data, whose action="" is to call the DTML method which contains the code above, whose job is to call the ZSQL method and format the results of the query into an HTML list. The 'manage_test' method is just a hardwired result form, it's magic is based exactly on what I've detailed here. -Michel > -----Original Message----- > From: Alexander Staubo <alex(a)mop.no> > To: Zope Mailing List (E-mail) <zope(a)zope.org> > Date: Sunday, June 20, 1999 10:05 PM > Subject: RE: [Zope] Newbie Q: Passing REQUEST.form data to a > Z SQL Method > > > >If I understand your problem correctly, you'd like to pass form > >variables to the SQL Method?
