can i replace javascript with python/DTML. I have used drop down menus in the pages using javascript. Is these available in Zope or is there some way of using these. Is there some book released on zope/DTML for reference. Does this mean a complete rewrite of the code is required of all the javascript and cgi files , or is there some method to convert them to DTML. Thanks On Sat, 17 Jun 2000, Richard Folwell wrote:
Hi Rajil,
I want to transfer a whole website containg javascript/html/cgi on zope. how do i do it. is it possible.
You would have to re-write the scripts, using DTML/Python as appropriate. The HTML remains the same.
Do i need to have zope on the ISP for my zope website to run.
Yes.
I only have ftp access on my ISP. Which files should i transfer so that the zope application works. btw i couldnot locate the files/database on my system about the webiste i am building. where is the database for the application kept.
You will definitely need an ISP that provides Zope support before you can do this. The Zope database is normally:
<your Zope root>/var/Data.fs
I donot know python but do know perl, can i add modules to zope in perl.
There are plans to provide Perl support, but this is for the future. For the moment learn Python - if you already know Perl then it will be straightforward, since they cover similar territory. Python has some advantages over Perl, particularly for larger development works.
Hope that helps,
Richard
