AW: [Zope] The Goblins of Zope

[Dieter Fischer]

Hello

Yes, I also have my stories. The most recent is since yesterday. I cannot
work with IE6 with my application. It works fine in the ZMI, also index_h=
tml
works. But when I call the first form (linked by index_html), it shows me=
 a
HTTP 500 error. IE works on an other machine which is ZSynced. On my mach=
ine
I have to work with Netscape...

Regards

Dieter

PS: Restoring an old data.fs now, and it works again
