My ignorance here shows, but I guess I just wonder if there was a way to programatically determine if a doc was STX or something else; I mean, I suppose you could write an external method that uses a regex to search/match the body text for the characteristic of stx, but I wish there was something as easy as: <dtml-in expr="objectValues('some meta_type')"> <dtml-var expr="_[id](_.None, _)" fmt=strucutred-text> </dtml-in> ... to iteracte through stx docs, but since there is no meta_type...

Hey, I've got a bit of a silly question (I've never used STX, but might want to for some product documentation I will be working on): does STX have a PUT factory method within Zope to allow me to create a new STX doc (in, say, vi or a Win32 text editor) and drop it in via FTP or WebDAV?

This would seemingly be the best way to get multiple authors (esp. ones not familiar with Zope) able to author and upload via WebDAV...

I'd highly recommend checking out Structured Text. The document at http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Articles/STX is a pretty good overview.

And one more question. :)

I'm trying to use Zope here at work to make it easy for everyone to publish to the site. Is there anything out there that can basically make it easy for a moron to publish to his/her part of the site? Nobody her knows what a <P> tag is for, etc...I'm trying to make it so that they simply create a text document, drop it in the right place (a folder) and then it's already up and running in zope, listed et al on the DB, in the search function, dynamically pulled online, etc...

Any way to do that? I can't imagine anyone here logging into the Zope GUI and trying to figure out what to do next. I could train them but they don't have time and I don't think they should have to do that, in the end.

So...any remarks? :)

Thanks. BTW, great list. I'm learning a lot just by reading on here. :)

Newbie Nat.
