Any suggestions, though, on how to do this? The only way currently to tell what to add via FTP is by the normal "magic" stuff (file extensions, investigating the content, etc. I personally like file extensions. I think everything behind the last dot (.) should define the file type. Always. I think that would be also good for Zope. Why write index_html, when you can write index.html?
Even worse, how would you edit the arguments list in a SQL method via FTP? Good Question. You could do something similar to HTML. The entire document is a SQL Method document. Then you have a "tag" (similar to head), maybe called ARGS to define the arguments. And use the BODY tag to specify the SQL statement Example: File name: qryGetMembersByGender.smf (smo - SQL Method File) Content:
<!--#args --> gender:string = "f" <!--#/args --> <!--#body type=sql --> # Having a type allows to use that format with other doc types SELECT * FROM members WHERE gender= <!--sqlvar gender type=string--> <!--#/body --> Note: I hope my example has the right syntax. I am still a little shaky, since I started coding in DTML last night. :)
We have some pretty good suggestions on how to do this, but first it would be interesting to hear other ideas.
I hope I was of any help. My question: I was just reading the Zope manual and read about Sessions. I know the manual is written for Zope 1.10 and I have Zope 2.0 Beta 1, but I could not find the Session options. I personally believe they are very valuable. Another question: Can I give different permissions to edit information and publish them. For example, iXL has many clients that want to use Content Management. But before any content from any department gets finally published a web editor must read it and approve the content (grammar and spelling ...). Does Zope's permissions are able to do this? stephan -- Stephan Richter iXL - Software Designer and Engineer -- Stephan Richter iXL - Software Designer and Engineer
