I have a query about the size of the text area in "Edit" views of Documents.
This is far too small for my liking, and I've found that the Taller/Wider buttons only work once - the result is still too small. My question is: can I alter the default height and width in the Zope source somewhere - if so where? (And why don't the change-size buttons work more than once?)
Dunno, they work fine for me, they size all the way to Alaska if needed. What browser do you use?
Netscape 4.5 - but I think I've tracked the problem down to having cookies turned off. At least, if I turn them on, the problem disappears (I should have thought of that before :-) Incidentally, just in case you've also tried this, I found a default definition for "dtpref_cols" in "Document.py" and changed it to '100', but to no effect. Is there some other place I need to change something to alter the defaults?
A second query is - can I save the DTML from the edit view to a file, edit the file, and then upload the result to replace the original DTML? (Which might be far faster than using the browser window's non-existsent editing abilities :-)
Using ZServer you can use FTP to get the DTML source, and put it back the same way.
I can't get this to work - possibly because I already have an ftp server at the same site. But then I'm not sure I'm using Zserver - is that the same thing as "serve.sh" starts? If I *was* using ZServer, then how would I get ftp to connect to it rather than a default ftp server at the same site? (I'm using Zope's 1.9 release).
