It's not just you, there is some very deep and powerful things going on underneath the minimalist management interface. At first they may seem a bit quirkly, but once groked the beauty of some of Zope's mechanisms are shocking. It even more shocking that people have been doing things any other way for so long. I can't really give you much insight, but I suggest looking at http://zdp.zope.org, those guys are putting together alot of jumpstarter material. Some more Zen material may be forthcomming. -Michel > Cheers, > Jules > > -- > Codito, ergo sum. > > _______________________________________________ > Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org > http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope > > (For developer-specific issues, use the companion list, > zope-dev(a)zope.org - http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) >

next-sequence and previous-sequence help..
by Tony McDonald 07 Jun '99

07 Jun '99

Hi all, I'm trying to get something working that displays a sequence from a database and provide next-sequence and previous-sequence buttons. What is different from the online documentation is that I want both the buttons at the end of a sequence block. eg, I want,  . ..the values from my_sequence...  previous button (batch of five).   next button (batch of five)   whereas the Zope docs imply this format,   previous button (batch of five).  ..the values from my_sequence...  next button (batch of five)   The problem is that the previous-sequence button is not shown (at all). The docs say 'previous-sequence:: the variable is true when the first element is displayed, and when the first element displayed is not the first element in the sequence' This *seems* to imply that previous-sequence can only be used at the beginning of a sequence...(and presumably that next-sequence can only be used at the end of a sequence). Is this right? tone ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2

arghhghghg Zope and PIL.
by Anthony Baxter 07 Jun '99

07 Jun '99

I seem to recall /F had a bit of a rant about this one earlier, but I'll just add my two bits worth: Can the ImageFile module _please_ be renamed. Yes, this breaks code, but the alternative is that PIL cannot be used with Zope. PIL predates Zope, so probably has precedence. If someone can suggest an alternative, I'm all ears... It's _really_ annoying to get bitten by this - _most_ stuff sort of works, and it's a complete pain to debug what's going on.

New to Zope. Will it ..........
by Robert Canary 07 Jun '99

07 Jun '99

Hi, I am looking for a web interface that will let my current dialin users create (without technical ability) and maintain their own webpages. >From reading some on the Zope website, it becomes evident that Zope will do this. But, I am somewhat confused........ I would really like to see just such a scenario in action. I also understood that it is its own webserver. I do not want to up root my Apache. I like Apache and I have it set to my prefrence and know it well. What I need is something that I can just link to from a "Members Only" webpage and give them a users interface to create, and or edit their webpage. Can I do this with Zope? Thanks in advance :-) -- robert canary system services OhioCounty.Net rwcanary(a)ohiocounty.net (270)298-9331 Office (270)298-7449 Fax

Pb with zclass and permission.(Zope1_11_0pr1)
by Gilles lavaux 07 Jun '99

07 Jun '99

Hello I have another problem with Zope1_11_0pr1: I have done the zclass like the CD exemple, just it's called 'Shipment' and has a lot of properties in a sheet called Shipment_Info. My problem is that only the superuser (or a user with manage role) can modify the properties of the newly created class instance. My 'addForm' method call a 'Create' method like: Creating request...<br>  Filling values...<br>    Done... The 'Update' method is a class method like:  My AccessControl python files are now up to date and handle nicely the added user-folders. I have try adding all the possible permissions to the zclass, I all the time end up with the login+password prompt windows.If I cancel it, Zope says:'You are not authorized to access manage_changeProperties.' The security settings for the properties-sheets is set to allow 'Anonymous' and my user Role ('Test'). My zclass methos 'Update' security has the 'Manage properties' permission mapped to 'Manage properties', the same for 'Access contents information','view','View management screens'. My zclass has all the permission on for anonymous and the 'test' user. I have also try to add local roles to my test user: no luck, also adding manage role. Another remark: the instances are created with default permission : just the 'Acquire permission settings?' is checked. If I un-check them and check all the permissions for anonymous or my user, still only the superuser can change the properties. So: am I the only one with this problem? Has someone a solution? NB: also has someone solved the request timeout with IE?? I have also the 'to many open file problem', the python process get one more open file at every site access, until the OS limit: 256 in my case (linus 5.1) Thanks for any help. Gilles

Re: [Zope] On the previous GIF Anim

>zhaoway> slow and the telephone fee is far too expensive and the browser >zhaoway> always behaves strangely. I'd rather you have some GIF frames > >Also, what browser are you using? Animated gifs have been around for >years. Netscape or IE should be able to deal with them perfectly. Or as >someone suggested, use RealPlayer to do a slide show, or use an image >program like Photoshop to explode the gif into it's sequence (although >it won't look as pretty as you might expect since it's layered). Grail! :) IE right now, frankly. :) I go online for about less than 5 min. a time to download all of thoes articles et al. for surf offline. When I browse offline, GIF anim.'s do not do their animations at all, ok, not always the case, sometime they can work very well like some GIF ads. The law is: if it is ad, it works well, if it's something I really care, it doesn't work at all. :( The point here is that the Inet is too expensive and too slow here, I can only go online less than 5 min. a time and sometime cannot download the GIF anim. fully offline, hence the problem. Sadly. BTW, please please do not use RealPlayer. I feel terrible about it. And I have no RealPlayer installed on my box, free though. I do believe simpler in better in most cases. For months, I used lynx to surf the net due to some money reasons and proxy and ... I'm not saying lynx rules. But if a webmaster could considering people in different surfing conditions, it will be great! I will appreciate it! --zhaoway .________________________________ /http://mud.jlonline.com/~zhaoway\ 闷罐船 \zhaoway(a)public1.ptt.js.cn / 水世界 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
