Jen, I'm a newbie, so I can't tell you exactly how to do this. Since Zope supports webdav, you can use this extension to the http protocol to allow your people to use a WYSIWYG editor, like DreamWeaver and GoLive. They use the WYSIWIG editor and when they save the file, it is actually saved across the net to the server. The "file" is one of the dtml objects in the ZODBC. They don't have to use the Zope management interface or really even know they are interacting with the server to a large extent. You can also check out http://www.webdav.org <http://www.webdav.org> for more info. When the Zope server is started, you use the -W argument to the start command to start webdav support. You'll have to also assign a port to the webdav traffic. Your start command would look something like (assuming you're using unix/linux)... ./start -W 8070 where 8070 is a the port of your choosing. It's funny, we went over this is our user group last night, the LA Zope User's Group (lazug.org), but getting this all to work is beyond is beyond my experience. Anyone else have details on making this work? I'd especially be interested in knowing how to set up DreamWeaver webdav interaction with the Zope server.

I have just been going through some of the manuals and online documentation. The creation of pages seems very basic and understandable from my viewpoint. However, the material I have found doesn't seem to address the use of Zope by non-HTML/basic scripting literate people (or at least how to develope a framework for non-web literate people to use). The department that we have in mind couldn't tell a <p> tag from an <ol> tag. They have only ever used a WYSIWYG interface. My question is, does anyone know where I can find information or a "tutorial" on how to create a framework like this? So that your average secretary can just update the actual text of the page much like in a WYSIWYG editor fashion? Or are we better suited by a different product? Thank you! Jenny _____ Do You Yahoo!?
