Hi I have just been asked to stop banging my head against the wall, as it is annoying other people in the office, so I turn to you all in the hope you can help! I am trying to create a moderated news bulletin board, and have based the back-end loosely on the Job Board engine, as "Created by mukhsein" and available as a How to on Zope.org. So far, I have successfully implemented the posting of news items, and have assigned them a property sheet value which means that I can display items which I have manually created with a 'live' value. The property sheet has 3 properties, news_title, news_content and live - live being a flag indicating whether the news item has been moderated. Default is '1' for unmoderated. I have also created an 'update form' which displays all the news items which are ready to be moderated ('live' value of 1). What I am failing miserably to do, is update the property sheet value, so that the news items are displayed in the 'live' list, rather than the to-be-moderated list. I want to be able to do this by submitting the moderated news item, and changing the value "live" from a '1' to a '0'. I am attempting to do this by sending a value as a hidden value within a form when the news item is submitted. I know that I am being pretty vague in this summation, but am interested to know if anyone can point me in the right direction - if you require code samples, I can provide, but really the base code is pretty similar to that of the Job Board (http://www.zope.org/Members/mukhsein/job_board_howto) without the search element. Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
