My fellow Zopistas, I did something 'quick and dirty' with Zope. Wishing to use my client's existing members database, and not succeeding at adding Zclass instances programatically, I just took their big table of data, massaged it into XML and uploaded it with XML2Zope. Pasting a dtml doc, 'content_html' into each folder (to display the properties) and renaming the folders were mindless chores; I added a ZCatalog, and presto! my first Zope web site. Now for my punishment... Actually, all I want to do is allow the members to update their folder properties, but without redirecting to the ZMI. Yet, unlike with Zclasses, the standard folder manage_editProperties method doesn't seem like a good 'customisation target'. How should this be done?
Well, Ken, it seems like you'll have to write your own manageEditProperties method for each XML tag/Folder type, which should be reasonably easy to do. Actually, you could extend XML2Zope to also output some default manageEditProperties methods automatically - mmmhh sounds nice :-) Best regards, Maik Roeder _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
