RBrowser (Mac OS X) FTP client converts all objects to DTML Documents
Hi, I'm using an FTP client called RBrowser in Mac OS X. When I update any Zope object with this client (DTML Method, Python Script) it gets converted to a DTML Document. I remember that this used to be a Zope problem, but that it was fixed, and indeed all other FTP clients I tried don't have this problem. So obviously this is a problem with this specific client. Can someone please describe what an FTP client needs to do - or not do - in order to be compatible with Zope, so I can forward this information to RBrowser's author and get him to fix the problem?

This sounds like it's: 1 - creating a temporary file 2 - deleting the one that's there 3 - renaming the temporary file to the old name ...check the undo tab to see if this is the case. The problem, of course, is that step 1 will usually create a DTMl method and step 2 will destroy the original object of the correct type. If this is then problem, then it's a very ahrd one to solve, other than persuading the client that what it's doing is a bad idea. cheers, Chris
