Hallo Milos, I'm not sure if I understand your problem right. First of all what do you mean with 'Fir-class'?Is it a ZClass or a usual Zope-Folder.I suppose a Zope-Folder!.
Oh no. "Fir" is a Product, with a single Z Class "Fir". Within Fir there are two folders and three methods: Products +-- Fir (product) +----Fir (Z Class) +------cz (folder) +--------lst_name (property of cz folder) +--------lst_text (property of cz folder) +------en (folder) +--------lst_name (property of cz folder) +--------lst_text (property of cz folder) +------changeLST_form (method) +------changeLST (method) +------display (method)
You have to call the method "manage_changeProperties" on an Object.
An object in my case is a property "lst_name" in "cz" folder. After creating an instance called AAA of Fir ZClass, I can access the "display" method: http://.....AAA/cz/display The "display" method simply contains just <dtml-var lst_name>. Depending on the URL, it displays the "cz/lst_name" or "en/lst_name". Using the same acquisition thinking, the "changeLST" method contains <dtml-call expr="manage_changeProperties(lst_name=REQUEST['lst_name_new'])"> where "lst_name_new" is obtained from a trivial form. I thought that "changeLST" would change the "cz/lst_name" property when called with http://.....AAA/cz/changeLST.
This should work: <dtml- call expr="cz.manage_changeProperties({'lst_name':lst_name_new})">
Unfortunately this would require to write many almost identical changeLST methods: one with cz.manage_changeProperties, one with en.manage_changeProperties, and there are many more language versions. As you may have guessed this is a database where every record contains many identical fields (name, text, etc.) for many languages. Like this: +--cz +----lst_name +----lst_text +--en +----lst_name +----lst_text +--de +----lst_name +----lst_text +--ru +----lst_name +----lst_text The idea is that once a new user selects her preferred language (and a Cookie is set for her), she is transferred to a starting url "http://www.website.org/de/start.htm" and from there she can access the database in her language by simple acquisition, without the need for having each method in many "language" versions, like I said above. I may figured it wrong. Is there a more clever way to do this? -- Milos Prudek
