Re: Re: [Zope] Problem with zope and long strings - SOS

My problem is that: I want to js.alert with long strings. I create these strings, and the complete js code. But zope is wrapping my strings like that:
<script> function aaa{ jscode... s="xxxxxxx ........ "; jscode... }; </script>
Usually, Zope does not break lines even when they get long.
Note, however, that in some cases you must prevent newlines around DTML constructs as they may end up in the generated code. You can do something like:
<dtml-XXXX ...
<dtml-YYYY...>
I.e., you put the newline into the DTML construct. The DTML parser does not allow newlines at all places but before the ">" is at least possible.
Sorry, but you are misundertanding me. My problem is that: I have a webpage that is show the data in table (grid). Every data that have error is get a sign with error message. Sometimes this message is more than 255 character, so the <img title> is cannot show all chars in message. This is cause that I need to show the error in other format. So I want to alert it with javascript (img onclick). And this time I crashed in zope's "string handling speciality": When I write this: jsscript="alert('a long string with many spaces');" context.page(param=jsscript) that zope is separate the lines in ending ' sign like that: jsscript=alert('a long string with many spaces '); In this time the js interpeter is makes errors. How to I prevent this "wrong working mode" of zope ? I'm not sure, but I think that short strings are showed/generated also like the example. The only solution that I find to I create hidden items without form, and the items are containing the long strings. The JS is get the item that I need, and get the .value, and show it with alert. But with zope js generating the zope is wrap the lines in ending ' sign. So that is the problem. Regards: FT

Does it do the same thing when you strip() the string before passing it? long_string = 'a long string with many spaces' jsscript="alert('%s');" % long_string.strip() context.page(param=jsscript) -Jim Washington
