A site might be more than just Zope, it could be a whole of bunch of servers applications etc. For example an e-commerce section written in say Perl, or streaming audio from some other server or some fancy. Most stuff 90% of sites do can be done in Zope and ZServer is great for that. To serve from ZServer I think files have to be in Zope (but I might be wrong on that)... As ever it depends... ----- Original Message ----- From: "michael montagne" <montagne@easystreet.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2000 6:49 AM Subject: [Zope] Re:Web Site newbie

Tremendous reply!! Just what I needed. I'm curious about one thing tho. <If you don't need a regular web server (for serving files outside of Zope), stick with the built-in ZServer. > Does this mean that I have to have all my files in the zope folder? Wouldn't I want to do that anyway? Can you elaborate? I'd like to stick with the Zserver if I can but I don't want to run into any road blocks too soon down the road. -mjm
