Indentation Oddities, or 'I didn't expect a sort of span-ish implication'
by Chris Larson 05 May '99

05 May '99

OK, here's a weird one. Things have been going fine for the last few days, then all of a sudden the world collapsed. I've been indenting my DTML with straight 'tab' characters, working in Netscape. Not had a problem. Now, all of a sudden today, when I call things that are indented, Zope hangs, eventually (and I do mean 'eventually') returning a 'Document contains no data, and pcgi.log shows: 'pcgi-wrapper: Failed to start resource (118) lock error: EEXIST' I am using the same browser, working on the same code, but all of a sudden can't indent. (At least I think that's what is going on.) And example: The first example chokes Zope with this mysterious EEXIST, while the second version works great. What gives? (Again, it _used_ to work.) -------------index_html------------              -------------index_html------------              Thanks much, Chris Larson Changeling, Inc PS To further confuse matters, the following 'changelingMenu' works great as is, but the changeling_standard_footer dies if I indent the '<HR WIDTH=480>' with a completely different error (See traceback following changeling_standard_footer). ---------changelingMenu--------- <TABLE BORDER=0 CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0 WIDTH=480> <TR ALIGN=CENTER>   <TD VALIGN=MIDDLE> <A HREF=index_html?file_id=> <FONT FACE=ARIAL SIZE=-1> <BR> </FONT> </A> </TD>   </TR> </TABLE> <HR WIDTH=480> ---------changeling_standard_footer------ <HR WIDTH=480>  </CENTER> </BODY> </HTML> ---traceback--- Sorry, an error occurred.

Boolean
by Jason Spisak 04 May '99

04 May '99

Zopsters: After reading again for a boolean info the DTML docs, I can't seem to see the best route to test in DTML. I tried a simple , didn't work I thought, since bolean deal with 1 and 0, I'd use  for true and  for false. That didn't work either. If I however used blank or '' as the search criteria it worked, as in  for true, and nothing for false. Whats going on with boolean, and can somebody point in the right direction? All the best, Jason Spisak webmaster(a)mtear.com

RE:Missing slash
by Jason Spisak 04 May '99

04 May '99

Zopists: Did anyone ever find out what was up with the URL not found using ZAP in the root folder. Just to re-cap: >From the "Zope" folder inside Zope, if you try to click any of the check boxes for anything in the root folder and then "cut, copy, paste etc..." it gives a URL not found for "/Zope" without the proper "/Zope/" end slash. Anybody know which method I change? Jason Spisak webmaster(a)mtear.com

tree tag positioning
by Sebastian Luehnsdorf 04 May '99

04 May '99

hi! i'm using the tree tag to structure some information. if i open a branch, the browser should position the view, so that the current branch is right at the top of the screen. netscape seems to have a bug, that hinders it to position the view correctly, if following a link. it works, however, if the url is entered by hand. is there a workaround to trick netscape to work correctly? ciao, basti --------------------------------------------------------------------- sebastian f. luehnsdorf beehive elektronische medien gmbh --------------------------------------------------------------------- http://basti.beehive.de http://www.beehive.de mailto:basti@beehive.de mailto:service@beehive.de fon: (+49 30) 84 78 20 fax: (+49 30) 84 78 22 99

FYI: Zope thread in Builder Buzz
by Paul Everitt 04 May '99

04 May '99

There's a Zope thread the the C-Net Builder.com forums. The URL for the forums is: http://buzz.builder.com The article is in the "Web Authoring" section, fourth link down. It's hard for Digital Creations' folks to respond objectively in cases like that, so PLEASE if some of you get a moment, chime in! --Paul

ZLDAPconn problems
by Keith Rohrer 04 May '99

04 May '99

I've added ldapmodule to my Python installation, and moved ZLDAPconn and ZLDAPMethods to Zope's lib/python/Products directory. Trying to add a ZLDAPconn to a folder, I get either a complaint about openc not being set in the request, or the following error: <html> <head> <title>exceptions.AttributeError</title> </head> <body> Sorry, an error occurred.<p>  </body> </html> My python is fairly poor at this point, so I'm not sure how to fix this. The version of ZLDAPconn is 0.1 (14-Mar-99), and ZLDAPMethods-0.1 of that same date. Python is 1.5.1, and Zope is 1.10.2 from source; this is all running under Solaris 2.6, and seemed to compile just fine (as did the ZOracleDB package, eventually). If the zip files have newer stuff, please let me know. Otherwise, any other advice would be appreciated. Keith

Enter subfolders and get file-listings (2. try)
by Sture Lygren 04 May '99

04 May '99

Hi! I Apologize if this one has shown up on the list already (I sent a mail about 10 hours ago ago and I see nothing) Now to my question... I wonder how I can get into subfolders and display the content therein. I have this DTML method:  <IMG SRC=""> <A HREF="/some/place/show_files?folder_id="></A><BR>  Pressing the link on a folders title will bring on folder_id to the show_files DTML method. This is ok, but how can I get into the folder with id=folder_id, so that I can display the files therein? I tried:   #this one doesn't work - why?      And:     This one displays nothing - why? Please tell me the correct way to handle this problem. Sture Lygren
