Another beginner question. I'm using Zope 2.4.0. I try to make a web page, where some files should be copied from one folder to another according to client request. I didn't find any method from DTML API reference for that. Then I tried to find some help from Python scripting, but found frome Zope Help System at Script (Python)->API Reference->PythonScript, that because of security considerations Python Scripts are not allowed to access to the Zope server's file-system.
So, are there any possibility to build a Zope application that copies files on server side from one folder to another. What do you mean with "folder"? A Zope Folder (part of the Web site) or a file system folder?
In the first case, you may look at ZShell. In the second case, you need to use an External Method. Dieter
