So, you have a CGI script that dynamically creates an image as its output. You'll either need to re-implement this using Python and make a ZOPE product, wrap it using a Zope product (which seems the least elegant), or just keep it out of Zope (probably the desirable). I assume you're running apache and using Zope.cgi, so your Zope path is http://yourhostname/Zope Now, your CGI scripts are under: http://yourhostname/cgi-bin You'll just want to reference the images just like you would in normal HTML. Zope will not mess with an img tag, so if it points to a working CGI script, you're ok. Does that answer your question? jessica lee tishmack wrote:
Say, for example, you uploaded an image called foo_jpg (Zope does not allow dots in object names). You could reference it from any object in the same folder as the image or nested folders using dtml-var
<dtml-var foo_jpg>
Thank you for your input..I think I need to explain myself a little better, however. I have no trouble with a static image...the trouble I am having is with images created on the fly.
For example, I have a cgi program (which I would like to continue residing in my linux structure.....static pages I would like to be in my Zope structure). This program will generate a graph based on the time units, and whatever particular data sets I pass as parameters to the program. So, the image can't be stored on Zope, since the image may be different each time it is brought up...for example, I have the ability to pass the word "today" as a parameter...this means that everyday, the graph generated will be different. Is there a way for Zope to respond to a cgi program that's being called as "img src" value?
Thanks, Jessica
