---------------

    These features make Zope an ideal environment for programming and
    authoring web content by groups and sub-groups of users.

       I am wondering if Zope -- only-- works with IE or
       can it use Opera or Mozilla.....
       they are browsers also.......

       OmniWeb 4.1 works

       <b>Konqueror</b> works, too.  (If Konqueror is in bold, you can use html 
       stuff...)

       ... andi if i see a <b></b> near the word "konqueror" what does it mean? :-P MaNdRiCuS

       What the browser actually gets is, of course, html, so any browser that handles html goes. All the hard stuff
       is done one the server.

       I think Windows Explorer is a file system browser - Internet Explorer is a web browser. (Is there some way to
       turn off the comments? - they really get in the way of the story)

       Yes, click the COM button above or below.

       I couldn't get this to work with Mozilla. I have cookies enabled and I even set up JavaScript so that the js
       on this page can set cookies ... but no go. The JavaScript sources look like there would be an alternative
       URL one could open (something like .../IntroducingZope.stx?suppresscomments=1) but I can't quite figure it
       out just from looking at the code. Could someone who is more knowledgeable follow up with a URL for those of
       us who are not fortunate enough to have a compatible browser?
       (Followup question: Does Zope generally assume users will have JavaScript ... in order to be able to do
       useful things?)

       Sorry, but I'm using Opera 6 and COM button doesn't work with it.

      % Anonymous User - Aug. 12, 2002 4:10 pm:
       "COM" button is not the "Comment" button nearby but an icon "COM off" on the top or bottom bar.

       By the way, its boring to read a book without comments ;-)

       User who have trouble with comments haven't formatted their "C".  It's 
       simple, but you should do it from a prompt (the GUI way is WAY too 
       complicated).  At a dos prompt, <start button, run, command>format your "C" 
       with:  format -u c:  Yes to confirm.  That'll fix it.
