Does anyone know of any resources that describe the use of Javascript within Zope? In particular, I am trying to call a Javascript function using the onChange event handler that is tied to a HTML select element. I need this Javascript function to perform an SQL query and then have it populate another HTML select element with the result set. Is this possible within Zope considering that queries are performed by Z SQL methods and possible other factors that I am unaware of? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
As javascript is executed on the client, not on the server, where the sql is, you will need some way for Javascript to talk to Zope without refreshing the browser window. I have used the vcXMLRPC library ( http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/ ) with great success for this kind of thing. - It should work almost out of the box as Zope has great support for XMLRPC.
