Source of Backtalk files of Developers Guide
by Andreas Tille 02 Dec '03

02 Dec '03

Hi, I'm the Debian maintainer of the Zope Developers Guide and I realized recently that this book switched from CVS to backtalk. Now I'm searching for a possibility to get the plain *.st files without user comments in it to release snapshots of this fine book. Kind regards Andreas.

refferencing a url from a script
by Matthew Thorley 02 Dec '03

02 Dec '03

Greetings again: I was wondering how you refference a url from a python script either as a redierect or as a way of POSTing data. That is to say in one instance I want the page the user is view to be redierected to some url and in the second instance I just want to POST some data something like url/post_method?TRUE=1. Thanks again -matthew

Is it possible to set up Apache (version 2) using rewrite rules to pass everything to zope, except the URLs started with, say, /phpMyAdmin.*? I would really appreciate any help you could provide. bz

Security?
by Goldthwaite, Joe 02 Dec '03

02 Dec '03

Thanks Dylan, Derek, Peter & Tim for your help on how to access URL parameter and on the best approach to take on my project. It helped a lot! I was able to call my routine, pass the parameters to it, and get a result back. I felt like I was almost there...then I hit a snag. I had a routine that was producing an HTML representation of my Income Statement. I worked it over so that it just returned the data in a list of line objects. When I hooked that into Zope and tried to run it, I got the Zope Logon screen. I traced it down to my use of the mx.ODBC module that I'm using to pull in the data. If I take it out, I no longer get the login screen. I figured that executing an external module was not allowed under my (only) login so I set about the task of finding where to change the permissions to allow my module to execute. I haven't been able to figure it out! I know that somewhere, there's a place where you can tell Zope that your module is safe but nothing I tired worked. The Zope Book talks about "executable content". I went to the security settings of my IncomeStatementScript object but I didn't see any permissions related to allowing modules to execute. In /Control_Panel/Products/PythonScripts on the README tab, it describes a method of adding an __init__.py module to a folder in the package directory with and example of "allow_module(base64) allow_module(re) allow_module(DateTime.DateTime)". I tried moving my object to a folder in packages and adding the __init__.py file with "allow_module(ISLines)" but it choked on the allow_module routine. I tried various things to get allow_module to work but nothing did. I'm thinking that maybe it's an older way of doing things that doesn't work anymore. I found a big list of permissions on the DEFINE PERMISSIONS tab of /Control_Panel/Products/PythonScripts. That is a bizarre screen! It has a list of object permissions followed by combo boxes each of which is set to disabled. I intuitively thought that you would set the permission from disabled to enabled if you wanted to activate it. Nope. If you pull down the combo box, you see the entire list of permissions. I'm not getting that screen at all. What would happen if you set the "Access Transient Objects" box from "(disabled)" to "Add RAM Cache Managers"? I tried making my module an external method but it also choked on the import mx.ODBC line. As a side question, the external method asks for a routine and function name. I'm trying to execute a class. It has functions in it but it's not a single function. Are external modules ONLY for specific functions? Do they work with Python classes at all? I tend to get wordy so I guess the simplest question is how do I get Zope to allow me to execute my ISLines.py module?

Hi, I'd like to build a display tree (dtml-tree or SimpleTree) from a catalog searchResults query. Does someone have a hint, where this already has been realized and point me there? Thanks Bories -- Bories v. dem Bussche Duesseldorf - Germany

Re: FYI: Epoz 0.7 - the XHTML-release

Hi, i've installed 0.7 and the output is great! I've converted the mxTidy rpm to debs, i can post them somewhere if there's interest. I have a problem with longer tables on latest mozilla firebird (linux) snapshot. I have a table with about 70 rows and 14 colums. It's valid xhtml, i ran it through tidy --asxhtml and validated using the w3c checker. When i try to edit the table it loads fine, but whenever it switches to html source (manually or on save) it cuts off anything below the sixth row. Without looking at the code i would guess it has something to do with some conversion/checking/indenting going on with a variable that can't handle the amount of data or a timeout (firebird is not very fast in js). In IE 6.0 it works fine, haven't checked IE 5.5 yet. Any ideas? I'm not shure if this is unique to 0.7, it didn't catch me before, though. Cheers Gabriel

Epoz 0.7.1 released - critical bug fix for 0.7.0
by Maik Jablonski 02 Dec '03

02 Dec '03

Hi to all, I've just released Epoz 0.7.1 - a critical bug fix for all people who installed Epoz 0.7.0 (the XHTML-release of Epoz). What is Epoz? Epoz is a cross-browser-wysiwyg-editor for Zope and Plone. It works out of the box with InternetExplorer >= 5.5, Mozilla >= 1.3, Firebird >= 0.7 and other "Gecko"-based browsers with a recent engine. Is Epoz now XHTML-compatible? Yes, it is. It uses the mxTidy-module (download http://www.lemburg.com/files/python/mxTidy.html) over XMLRPC to transform the HTML to XHTML on the fly. There was a severe bug in the 3.party-vcXMLRPC-modul which resulted in Mozilla truncating the XHTML to 4096 characters, so please upgrade if you installed Epoz 0.7.0 or data may be lost. Can I see a demo? http://www.zfl.uni-bielefeld.de/personal/mjablonski/epoz/ Where can I download Epoz? http://www.zope.org/Members/mjablonski/Epoz/ What are the changes in the 0.7.x-release? 0.7.0 - added support for mxTidy to produce nice and valid xhtml-code. - added site-hook EpozPostTidy, so you can change the output of Epoz with an additional script / external method. Useful if you want to clean up or rewrite (absolute) links etc.pp. - added missing language support for Plone. 0.7.1 - fixed critical bug: Mozilla truncated contents to 4096 bytes received from EpozTidy over XMLRPC due to a bug in the string-code of the vcXMLRPC-library. - fixed critical bug: if mxTidy found errors in html, an empty document was returned to Epoz. JavaScript-alert informs the user about critical errors in document. And what is this thing with Epoz 0.x and Epoz 1.x? There's an ongoing effort on http://sf.net/projects/epoz to develop a next generation of Epoz (1.x), based on new ideas and on a new design. Guido Wesdorp, Philipp von Weitershausen and Paul Everitt have done a great job working on Epoz (1.x). The developement of the original Epoz (0.x) will continue because I run several applications which I can't easily update to Epoz (1.x) in the near future.
