Zope wack book published by SAMS - anyone got corrected examples?
I bought the "Zope web application construction kit" book published by SAMS and am trying the work through the Myaddress book example in chapter 3. There are mistakes in the code and I have spent a week trying to get this simple site to work. I have got as far as getting the input and search pages working but I can't get the update and delete record pages to work. Has anyone succeeded with this chapter and can they show me what is wrong with the code listed in the book? Alternatively, if anyone has an email address for one of the authors, Brockmann, Kirchner, Luhnsdorf or Pratt, I would like to write to them to ask why they think it is ok to publish a book and not offer users the possibility of reporting problems or getting information on errata. For anyone thinking about buying this book my advice would be --- don't. But if you really want to you can buy my copy at half price. (First three chapters have been thumbed through but the rest of the book is in perfect condition. thanks Patrick
