[Zope] re: couple of newbie questions on implementing zope

[hpinson@indepthl.com]

Hi David, in answer to the first part of your question;

If you run Zope on W2K with the IIS subsystem completely 
removed, and do your security homework (at least I am finding) 
W2K to be a very stable platform.  If you need a second webserver, 
either in front or behind, the latest stable Apache works very well.

If you do need to move to an alternate server plaform, just export 
your site as a .zexp file to the /var directory, move it to the new 
server, and import it from the /import directory.  Assuming you have 
the same products installed and everything configured identically in 
your Zope, you should have no problems.

In answer to the second part of your question, yes, most anything 
you can do with DHTML, Zope will support.  Another perhaps 
cleaner approach might be:

index_html calling:
    header_html
    content_html
          calling content.htm
    footer_html

All, except content.htm is in your site root, and content.htm sits in a 
folder by itself and can be moved as you envision.
