I have a slowly maturing Zope product that is now associated (thanks John) with a folder like object through OFS.ObjectManager. What would be the 'right' way to read text or DTML from a known object within the project's Zope folder into the product.
You're welcome. The right way I would think is to let Acquisition handle the problem for you. If you have placed a DTMLMethod "bar" inside your ObjectManager "foo", then browsing to "/foo/bar" should render the contents of the "bar" DTMLMethod, or is this not what you wanted?
I am working on a product that will perform some bioinformatics tricks with data in a database and would like users to be able to modify the templates for how data is displayed, and to allow for the intergration of project specific acknowlegement tags.
Sounds interesting.
Please excuse me if this is a dumb question - I could really do with some pointers into more advanced Zope product writing - the Zope Bible has been assimilated, I need more info!
I find this list to be very valuable, especially comments from Dieter, who usually comes through at about 5-8PM EST and answers a ton of unanswered questions. Apart from that, find a Product that does something similar to what you want and see how they do and then copy them. JZ
