[Zope] Newbie: Ownership confusion

Tue, 9 Jul 2002 06:47:24 -0500

Yep, the code is as shown below.  If admin creates the folder in the
management screen, 'folder' gets chosen from the 'Select Type To Add' drop
down box.  If other users add a folder, I go to the 'folder contents' area
then choose 'New' and add a folder.

Here is what I mean by description field.  If I again go to the 'folder
contents' area then choose 'New' and add a 'folder', I need to fill in an
ID for that folder and click the 'add' button.  On the next screen, the
user can fill in the 'title' and 'description' for that folder.  This is
the description field I am talking about.

Thanks!

Are you sure your code is exactly as above? I can't see hwo any
permission-based filtering
would be taking place. If there were permission problems, I'd expected the
basci auth
dialog box to pop up. What type of user folder are you using?

folder?

What do you mean by 'description field'?

cheers,

Chris
