Re: [Zope] POLL: Preferred browser?
Well, as a note to the Zope folks, I would really prefer to use Lynx... but the zope management screens are not at all lynx-friendly (FRAMES!). Sigh. Curtis Maloney <curtis@umd.com.au> writes:
Greetings,
Look, I don't want to start any holy wars, just to get a head count, more or less. But what are peoples preferred browsers for ZOPE development?
Until now, I've been using Netscape, whilst desperately searching for some replacement that didn't haemorhage memory. I think I've even managed to narrow down which part of NS is losing the memory (it's the edit box, which is why it seems to happen quicker when working with ZOPE).
However, in my searches I've yet to find ANYTHING under Linux that comes close to the functionality of NS.
As I said... I don't want advocacy here, simply name and version, and perhaps a quick rundown of the reason(s) you chose it over others.
-- Have a better one, Curtis.

Lynx does frames just fine. It lists them as hyperlinks. Just select the second one, and you'll be amazed how much you can do with Lynx and Zope =) Martijn Pieters | Software Engineer mailto:mj@digicool.com | Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com/ | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org/ | The Open Source Web Application Server ---------------------------------------------
Instead of going to http://blah/Object/manage go to http://blah/Object/manage_main. Voila. If you want to see the left hand tree frame go to /manage_menu. It many not look all that pretty on lynx, but it works fine and I use it all the time. -Michel John Goerzen wrote:

It's quite nice being able to edit the site using Lynx, but you cannot create new objects as the 'Add' option box uses Javascript. Because it's listed as DISABLED, Lynx won't let you pick a type before clicking on Add. -- Steve. Michel Pelletier wrote:
