You don't need to compile python files.

So changing function 'quote' in the MailHost file to def quote(c): i = ord(c) return ESCAPE + HEX[i/16] + HEX[i%16] should work. If only I could work out how to compile python files...

I added the two headers to the email and it still came out the same (ie = became ==). I'm using Outlook 98 as a client, but I should imagine that shouldn't make a difference. Does anyone understand why the MailHost code is trying to quote the message text?

I couldn't get it to work but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't anyway. I had a look at the MailHost code and found some quoting stuff that if I knew more about python I might be able to do work out the problem with. Down the bottom of MailHost.py in the MailHost product is the following ESCAPE = '=' MAXLINESIZE = 76 HEX = '0123456789ABCDEF' def needsquoting(c, quotetabs): if c == '\t': return not quotetabs return c == ESCAPE or not(' ' <= c <= '~') def quote(c): if c == ESCAPE: return ESCAPE * 2 else: i = ord(c) return ESCAPE + HEX[i/16] + HEX[i%16] def encode(input, quotetabs): """Encode a string to Quoted-Printable""" output = '' for line in string.split(input, '\n'): new = '' prev = '' for c in line: if needsquoting(c, quotetabs): c = quote(c) if len(new) + len(c) >= MAXLINESIZE: output = output + new + ESCAPE + '\n' new = '' new = new + c prev = c if prev in (' ', '\t'): output = output + new + ESCAPE + '\n\n' else: output = output + new + '\n' return output I presume some quoting needs to go on in order for the message to be sent to the smtp server. This seems to be buggy. Can anyone tell me how to fix this as it is quite urgent.

If the browser requests an object that doesn't exist, ZPublisher raises it's own error. This is compounded by the fact that pcgi has a whole slew of *real* pretty error messages that have an even more interesting "format". :) It is generaly agreed that the Module that ZPublisher publishes should define hook methods when ZPublisher encounters various error conditions in the context of the protocol being used (for example, in XML-RPC, what sense does '404' make and who cares about a pretty formated HTML response?). This is where even we get confused.

DTML methods bafflement
by Martijn Faassen 15 Apr '99

15 Apr '99

Hi there, I thought I'd figured out DTML methods, but here's something that I intuitely think is possible, but gives me an error (in Zope 1.10.2). It has to do with DTML methods (or documents, I don't think there's a difference) calling each other. My basic understanding: A DTML method is a callable object, that functions as a method of a Zope folder. DTML methods can call other DTML methods, with the #call tag:  The call tag doesn't give any return value. The #var tag does; it gives as return value the rendered HTML of the called DTML object. You can supply arguments to your calling DTML methods: DTML method - 'caller'  DTML method - 'callee' <p>The arg was: </p> This works as expected when rendering 'caller', you see: The arg was: Foo! Now, here comes the confusing part -- passing an argument along: First, we rewrite caller to this:  Then we make a DTML method called 'baffle':  When I try to view that DTML method, I get an error (appended at the end). Why does this happen? I expect it's not a bug but a failure to understand on my part. In my understanding, methods of objects can pass values on to each other. If it is my error, then perhaps we need some document that describes what exactly is going on when DTML methods call each other, how arguments are passed. I've been browsing through the source but so far I'm not enlightened. I'm wishing for some easy to remember algorithm/structure that's applied here. A related question; in my perhaps broken view of DTML methods as methods can get arguments, the concept of an 'argument list' (somewhat like in Z SQL methods) for DTML methods (and documents) would be useful. I realize acquisition can produce a whole lot of potential arguments (actually being acquired as attributes), but perhaps there should be some way to call up a list of everything that's in the namespace of a particular DTML method (in particular circumstances). Something like that would help my understanding, and might help debugging in general. Regards, Martijn (and here's the promised error traceback from Zope:)  </BODY></HTML>

You should be able to do something like:      The sql_delimiter thing is meant to imply that you may want to, in the same REQUEST INSERT into one or more tables as in: INSERT INTO customers ( customer_id, last_name, first_name, phone ) VALUES ( , , , , )  INSERT INTO orders ( customer_id, part_number ) VALUES ( , , ) > I am currently trying to use a single sql method that does > everything I > wanted. > > On a related note, how do I include the text of an sql > method inside another > sql method? <UNTESTED>I don't think you can</UNTESTED>. You could define a few DTML Documents and run them together in a SQLMethod as in: sqlDoSomthing defined as:    Hope this helps! --Rob
