Bobo/realm? [resolved]
by John Eikenberry 03 Feb '99

03 Feb '99

I figured out why the realm wasn't being set. It turns out that if you raise an 'Unauthorized' exception in your custom validation method, it skips the code that adds the realm to the http header info in cgi_module_publisher (bobo) or ZPublisher.Publish (zope). The solution was to change the 'raise "Unauthorized"' to 'return None'. I originally used the Unauthorized exception as it seemed a way to shortcut bobo from looking up the containment hierarchy for other user databases. Just thought I'd pass the solution along to complete the thread. :) --- John Eikenberry [jae(a)taos.kavi.com - http://taos.kavi.com/~jae/] ______________________________________________________________ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will deserve neither and lose both." --B.

Re: [Zope] - XML-style DTML code

The only thing that might not work above is inserting & or < , > etc. in certain places (they would normally have to be & or <) Ahhh, but you have the floating (unclosed) <zope:else> tag. :P I was actually working on a similar spec many months ago here at DC. The truest XML-ish way we can think of (well, not true-est, but pretty truthful at least) is <zope:if condition="total_votes"> <zope:ifTrue>...</zope:ifTrue> <zope:ifFalse>...</zope:ifFalse> </zope:if> The else clause is its own block within the if and should be properly enclosed. It's tempting to be more pythonic and do if..else..end and have a floating <zope:else/> tag, but it kindof defeats the hierachical structure of XML. Or actually (as Jim Fulton just pointed out to me), something like a SWITCH or CASE structure is needed: <zope:switch> <zope:if condition="cond1">....</zope:if> <zope:elif condition="cond2">....</zope:elif> <zope:elif condition="cond3">....</zope:elif> <zope:else>....</zope:else> </zope:switch> This is why a pure XML variant of DTML like the above would most likely require a different engine than current DTML. I think this is better (and more powerful) in the long run than the <? ?> syntax which still feels hacky and would probably get limited support from editors as it is. A benefit of a pure XML variant of DTML would be that an accompanying DTD could be fed to an editor and then give all the tags to the writer. Full XSL support could be even better (especially with potential XQL support in Zope). (I initially fought XSL in Zope, but recent readings of much newer drafts of the XSL spec have lightened me :). --jPS - - - / jeff(a)digicool.com - http://www.digicool.com/

Re: [Zope] Zope in Virtual Host on ISP

The time module is part of the standard python distribution. And it's a built-in. If you're having problems with importing time, let's back off and create a tiny cgi script, testcgi.py, and attempt to execute it from your browser (*) #!/home/c/change/local/bin/python print "Content-type: text/html" print print "<pre>" import os, sys print "Python %s" % sys.version for (x,y) in os.environ.items(): print "%s\t%s" % (x, y) print "</pre>" (*) http://starship.skyport.net/crew/jbauer/apachenotes/ The nice thing about this script is that you should get immediate gratification. If it fails, it will tell you exactly why it failed. (Hint: try it from the command line first.) Then you can start adding import statments until it breaks. Good luck. Jeff Bauer Rubicon, Inc. P.S. If you're unable to get testcgi.py to work, try the simple bourne script below. #!/bin/sh # disable filename globbing set -f echo Content-type: text/plain echo echo CGI/1.0 test script report: echo echo argc is $#. argv is "$*". echo echo SERVER_SOFTWARE = $SERVER_SOFTWARE echo SERVER_NAME = $SERVER_NAME echo GATEWAY_INTERFACE = $GATEWAY_INTERFACE echo SERVER_PROTOCOL = $SERVER_PROTOCOL echo SERVER_PORT = $SERVER_PORT echo REQUEST_METHOD = $REQUEST_METHOD echo HTTP_ACCEPT = "$HTTP_ACCEPT" echo PATH_INFO = "$PATH_INFO" echo PATH_TRANSLATED = "$PATH_TRANSLATED" echo SCRIPT_NAME = "$SCRIPT_NAME" echo QUERY_STRING = "$QUERY_STRING" echo REMOTE_HOST = $REMOTE_HOST echo REMOTE_ADDR = $REMOTE_ADDR echo REMOTE_USER = $REMOTE_USER echo AUTH_TYPE = $AUTH_TYPE echo CONTENT_TYPE = $CONTENT_TYPE echo CONTENT_LENGTH = $CONTENT_LENGTH echo PYTHONPATH = "$PYTHONPATH"

Prevent image-reloading...
by Andy Smith 02 Feb '99

02 Feb '99

Hi All, I'm not sure if this is an generic HTML question or a Zope question so pls. bear with me! I've just been changing a site to switch from a frames-based layout to using tables instead to organise the page content (in fact the new layout has striking similarities to the zope site ;) ). One thing that's niggling at the moment is that the sidebar buttons are gifs, but they seem to reload every time another page is seleced, even though the URL for the gif is identical. This was fine when using frames, because the buttons would only load once and then they'd just sit there in the frame doing nothing, however, now using tables the whole page is reloaded every time, the GIFs are being reloaded for every single mouseclick :( I'm using IE4.01... in the past most gifs of this sort are just pulled out of a cache when they're referenced, is there a technique whereby you can tell a browser you want the gifs *not* to be reloaded? Cheers, Andy.
