Hmm... the screenshot didn't seem to 'travel' too well, Guess you'll just have to install PIL to see it. ;) Cheers, A.

Hi All, I'm just uploaded a new Product to the contrib area. It is a poll product based on Amos's example. It uses PIL to draw piecharts of the poll results. I was originally going to include a precompiled PIL with the product, but the product swelled to 500k as a result, so instead I've left pointers to where to get PIL in the product documentation. I'll send a hypertext screenshot immediately after this message so that people can decide whether or not they want to go to the effort of downloading and installing PIL. Pls note that there are some problems I'm having with getting the GIFs to update appropriately, so after banging my head against a wall for a while [in true opensource tradition ;) ] I've decided to throw it open to the floor to see if anyone can find a workaround. I've also uploaded a 'fixed' version of the Guestbook example product, which broke going from Zope1.9 -> Zope1.10. Enjoy! Andy.

Anyways I want to say that my suggestion does just what 'select last_insert_id()' does. namely return the number created in an auto_increment field during your last insert Sture Lygren > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- > Tom Jenkins DevIS (http://www.devis.com) > Linux & Samba 2.0 : The best Windows file server > http://www.zdnet.com/sr/stories/issue/0,4537,2196106,00.html > "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

Hi, I just saw an interesting thread over at http://www.scripting.com. Here's the direct link to the article: http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$4124 Someone wrote a comparison of Zope and Frontier. Followed up by a technology demo of getting the two to talk via XML.

Python Anyone: Linuxworld Article
by Robert OConnor 17 Mar '99

17 Mar '99

Check out the article in Linuxworld: This is good for ZOPE newbees who wonder what and why about Python (The underlying language of ZOPE). http://www.linuxworld.com/linuxworld/expo/lw-python.html Title: "Python, anyone? " You may have dismissed Python as just another scripting language beginning with 'P,' but more and more open source developers are finding Python has some bite Summary At first, the Python scripting language may sound like another version of Perl, but Robert Richardson highlights the differences that make it useful in its own right. (1,500 words) By Robert Richardson *--- Paul Everitt mentions Zope in the discussion forums related to this article. -bobo connor bob(a)rocnet.com

If someone on this conference would look at my mail from Monday, I would be grateful. The idea of having to put all my images into Zope by hand makes me very sick :-) -- Milos Prudek

Does fsdir parameter of fsimport specify the remote directory (where Zope is) or local directory (from where I look at Zope)? -- Milos Prudek

I've started a site that will show the results of my work in getting Dreamweaver and Zope to talk to each other - and I would appreciate a link from the zope.org site if there is a section for 3rd party developer links... I will post here (at the web site) ideas for improving the UI for the HTML interface for Zope as well. http://alaji.home.mindspring.com/zopeweaver/ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Andrew Wooldridge - Opinions expressed are my own - - andreww(a)netscape.com - http://people.netscape.com/andreww/ - ICQ: 6345881 - Find It at http://dmoz.org - -------------------------------------------------------------------------

recursive document oddity
by Jordan B. Baker 17 Mar '99

17 Mar '99

Hey zope freaks: Okay, I am driving myself crazy, maybe I am just doing something silly (hopefully). I am trying to write this recursive SQL result DTML (basically a tree):  <p>Category  <blockquote>  </blockquote>  I have a variable pwd that I want to pass along to recurseCategories.. I tried something like  (and in quotes) pwd is used in listCategories to get a list of categories in that 'path' A couple questions: 1. Should I be using a DTML method or a DTML document for something like this? 2. As I recurse will I lose access to documents in my current folder? I got a traceback to seemed to indicate that once I was into a certain depth I couldn't access listCategories. 3. Is there a more Zope-happy way to do this? ------- Jordan B.
