I guess CMF could be a solution, check out plone (www.plone.org) as well; concerning your subdomain issue: what about using apache serving requests in front of zope and use rewrite rules (mod_rewrite) to provide virtual hosts such that a query to agenta.propertyportal.com is being forwarded to propertyportal.com/agenta this would mean any top-level zope folder would be accessible via a "subdomain" (setting this up is only a dns issue), thus solving your search problem. cheers, oliver Am 26.09.2002 11:52 Uhr schrieb "Brian" unter <newbie@konzoo.com>:
Hi,
I'm thinking of building web application for a property company. This property company has staffs who works as agent for the company.
The company is thinking to have a portal which can do following: -The agents can customize his/her own page -> agentA.propertyPortal.com or agentB.propertyPortal.com -The agents can post pictures of his/her properties in his working directory/page. Basically each agent has an independent portal solution which include search capabilities.
-But if the user logon to the main portal which is www.propertyPortala.com the user can search entire properties of the whole agents.
My questions: -If I use Zope, shall I use CMF? -Would it be enough to build this type of application only knowing: DTML and Python?
Can someone judge how long this will take? Consider: -I'm a Java programmer and don't know much about Python -I know DTML and basic Zope.
thanks, Brian
