Newbie Alert ! Sorry for my stupid questions but
I am stuck on the basic things and I have read the
documents many times.
#1. The default standard_html_footer has this inside
<p><!--#var ZopeAttributionButton--></p>
Where is ZopeAttributionButton defined ?
I can not find the image object anywhere.
Also, where is the variable URL1 defined in
the default index_html ?
Sorry, I know these are stupid questions and not very important.
#2. I want to put all of my images in a folder called "images".
If I read the documents right, I can access the contents of
a folder using
<dtml-with foldername>
<dthml-var imagename>
</dtml-with>
But that is not working. If I place that code inside the root
index_html after the standard_html_header then view the page,
I get a "save as" popup as if the content type is wrong !
Also, how would I access the contents of subfolders of subfolders ?
<dtml-with foldername/subfolder> or <dtml-with foldername.subfolder> ?
#3. I wanted to use Zope with MSIIS on NT. The installation instructions
for windows say that choosing to install as a service will let me
specify the scripts folder of my web server. This did not happen.
And there is no zope.cgi created either !
Did this change in version 2 ?
#4. Before I try to install Zope on my Solaris workstation, I need
to know whether uninstallation will involve simply deleting the
folder ?
#5. How do you add Javascript events to images ? For example, for
rollovers ?
#6. How are people arranging their folders ? It looks like the base
folder will be just too full of common elements for the website.
For example, if my navigation tree is like this
+ Products
+ Catalog
+ Promotions
+ Services
+ Support
+ Helpdesk
+ OurCompany
+ CommonElements
+ Images
+ DatabaseConnectors
I understand that a dtml document or dtml method can use
objects in higher directories. For example, a dtml document in
Products/Catalog can use a dtml method inside Products
But just say I wanted to use an image within CommonElements/Images
within a dtml document in Support/Helpdesk (or anywhere in the
site), is that possible ?
Similarly for Database connectors. I don't want to pollute the
root folder with all of the images, methods and database
connectors that are common to all pages.
Sorry for so many questions. I really have read the documents
many many times but can not work this out.
TIA,
Henry
