Hi, Probably the top news this week is the release of an alpha of mod_pcgi by Python big-wig Andrew Kuchling. His efforts will lead to much better Zope/Apache integration in the future. Lots of other folks continued to make other important contributions too. * Andrew Kuchling announced an alpha version of mod_pcgi to allow Apache to easily communicate with Zope via PCGI. ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/amk/new/mod_pcgi.tgz http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005083.html * Amos Latteier announced the availability of a Portal Toolkit Demo. The demo describes the forthcoming Portal Toolkit and includes animated GIFs to show it in action. http://www.zope.org/Products/PortalToolkit/Tour/ http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005008.html * Ross Lazarus announced an experimental Zope to static HTML external method. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005060.html * A few people discussed "recursive acquisition" or using acquisition to create indirect paths to objects. This feature is confusing to some, but Anthony Baxter explained how he finds it incredibly useful. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005156.html * Zope Documentation Project contributor, Tom Deprez, announced a "Zope Commercial", or site which describes how he uses Zope. http://www.master.cit.be/c8/default.html http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005131.html * Anthony Baxter announced an alpha of Zope Dataminer, which is an interesting looking system for dynamically constructing SQL queries via URLs. http://www.interlink.com.au/anthony/dmc-0.1.tgz http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005173.html * Alex Rice first asked about searchable Zope documentation, then solved the problem himself by setting up a Zope documentation search site. http://www.swcp.com/~alrice/zope/ http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005190.html * Rik Hoekstra announced the formation of a usergroup for Dutch speaking Zope users called "Zope in the low countries". http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-June/005231.html http://sw.fsw.leidenuniv.nl/cgi-bin/WebSite.exe/zopegroep * A couple programming hints for preparing for Zope 2 were posted by DC folks this week. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/1999-June/000533.html http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/1999-June/000530.html -Amos -- Amos Latteier mailto:amos@digicool.com Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com

Ah - I obviously didn't explain it well enough in my original posting. It's not necessary to construct the queries by building the URLs - it's an interactive application - you build the queries dynamically. ("hm, let's see, I don't want to see _that_ data, so I'll click on the 'not equal to' link next to it") The eventual goal is for it to be able to be used in place of something like Crystal Reports SQL for allowing people to build up queries. I'll put up an animated gif demonstrating it, soonish. Anthony -- Anthony Baxter <anthony@interlink.com.au> It's never too late to have a happy childhood.
ZDP.zope.org is indexed now too, except for URLs containing '?tree' (which excludes all of ZBook).

Amos, what about indexing the collection_all_chapters_page_of_ZBook ? http://zdp.zope.org/guide/ZBook/zb_all Regards, Zom

You can safely chop off the ?tree query. The contents of ZBook can also be indexed by indexing http://zdp.zope.org/guide/ZBook/zb_all, which is one long document with all the content OF ZBook -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | Tel: +31-35-7502100 Fax: +31-35-7502111 | mailto:mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ------------------------------------------
