[Zope] Wildcard DNS with zope?

[Tino Wildenhain]

Hi Duane,

per default, zope does not care about the hostname
in the browsers request.
You set up a wildcard domain as usual, pointing
all at your zope box, of course.

The Hostname will be in request.SERVER_URL
(with http:// ...)

And you can call a script in your site or different
ones from index_html.

request=context.REQUEST

keywords=request.SERVER_URL.replace('http://','').replace('/','').split('.')

return context.ArticlePageTemplate(keywords)
