 That's good. One thing which is not good is that you deprecated the use

 Why is such a deprecation warning bad? Wouldn't this encourage people to
 update their code?
 
 
 A deprecation warning isn't bad. But I think we should not deprecate
 the use of ITerms from zope.app.form. I don't see a gain in this API

No it is not. I just question why we force everybody to use the new 
location when we did not do so with ISite. It is exactly the same issue 
with two different outcomes.

The canonical location for ISite is zope.location now. It used to 
reside in zope.app.component but was moved to zope.location w/o 
deprecating the use from zope.app.location to keep the API backward 
compatible. I really do not see a differrence to ITerms here.

This doesn't have to do with bachward compatibility. Deprecated
imports are backward compatible too. I think someone just missed
to deprecate that interface.


The reason why we should deprecate interfaces is: If a package
still points to the old interface location, this package whould
bring in the old dependency we tried to remove.

I guess, since you are asking for support the old location,
this doesn't hurt you because you are using both packages.
Others don't. Any other packages which doesn't adjust the
import to the new location will hurt others which do not use 
both packages.

I see that this makes it more a good thing for others then
for yourself. But I think that's fine. Isn't it?

In my point of view, deprecation messages are a great concept
to announce changes/improvments without to break compatibility.
Without such announcements our code can get very quick out 
of date and we have no change to know about that.

btw,
we also should deprecate the ISite interface at the old location.

Re: [Zope-dev] adapting to None

Marius Gedminas wrote:

the interface in question.

 *That's* what I'm looking for help with, not judgement on whether 
 adapting to None is a good idea or not ;-)
 
 Could you please describe the real problem you're solving?  

I have a generic IFieldType (well, could arguably be called IFieldValue) 
adapter, which subclasses, eg:

class IFieldType(Interface): pass

class number(IFieldType): pass

class text(IFieldType): pass

class date(IFieldType): pass

class empty(IFieldType): pass

...etc..

The idea being that you can do things like:

text(anything)

...and if there's an adapter for it, it gets called and you get back 
something that implements IFieldType.

This couples nicely with, for example:

classImplements(unicode,text_type)
classImplements(int,number_type)
classImplements(float,number_type)
classImplements(date,date_type)
classImplements(type(None),empty)

def str_to_date(str):
 return parse(str,dayfirst=True)

provideAdapter(str_to_date,(str,),date)

Now, you could, for example, then do:

IFieldType([])

...which should return None.

cheers,

Chris

 zope.app.form this is not so important. I think they will be

 Same question: what would you gain here? Packages are slowly migrated 
 to using the new ISite import but nobody is forced to change all the 
 code right now to get rid of all the deprecation warnings. 

All I can say about that is: If there is an improvment in the API
we need to announce that. Otherwise other developer will not follow
or follow at a time they think it's better for them. Or even 
worse, they don't know about that.

Deprecation messages will kick them a little bit and they get forced
to update their code in a acceptable way ;-)

The question now is, should we be lazy and skip this information
and support nice deprecation free test output or support developer
with information about the newest API changes in form of deprecation
message hints?

Re: [Zope] problem with a form in IE 7

Has nothing to do with Zope but...
Use Firefox to debug it and you'll get to see the error.
put method=post on form tag and the submission won't be visible in the URL.

2008/12/11 C baiew...@gmail.com:
 We are running Zope 2.9.8 on Macintosh OS X Server 10.5.5 behind Apache 2.x.

 I am having a problem when trying to submit one of my forms in IE 7.  This
 only happens on Windows XP and it only started happening recently (we think
 in the past week).

 The form contains several select boxes.  When the user selects a value from
 one of the select boxes, it submits the form and processes the selection.
 The error I receive is an IE error that says:Internet Explorer Cannot
 Display the Webpage.
 And for some reason, all of my selectbox values are showing in the URL as
 parameters.   This is not supposed to happen.   If I remove the parameters
 from the URL line and press enter, it works fine.

 I have another page that works similar to this one (with multiple select
 boxes that submit the form upon selection), that doesn't experience the same
 problem.

 I even changed my form action to go to a plain html page, and it still tries
 to pass all of my form variables in the URL string.

 I went to Microsoft's trouble shooting page for this error.  I've tried
 deleting my browser history, clearing out any cached items, and also
 re-starting IE without Add-Ons.  The server has been restarted as well.
 None of these options have resolved the issue.

 Neither the Apache log nor the Zope error log shows these errors.
 Has anyone encountered this problem?  If so, what have you done to resolve
 the issue?

No. Don't fiddle with that. Get the form right. That's the basics.
It might be worth reading up and understanding the basic difference

Re: [Zope] problem with a form in IE 7

2008-12-15 Thread C
It turns out that Internet Explorer doesn't like it when you pass more than
141 form variables with a single submit. Our site collects employment
applications and once we hit 142 applications the page broke for anyone
using IE7 on XP.

 We are running Zope 2.9.8 on Macintosh OS X Server 10.5.5 behind Apache
 2.x.

 I am having a problem when trying to submit one of my forms in IE 7.  This
 only happens on Windows XP and it only started happening recently (we think
 in the past week).

 The form contains several select boxes.  When the user selects a value from
 one of the select boxes, it submits the form and processes the selection.
 The error I receive is an IE error that says:Internet Explorer Cannot
 Display the Webpage.
 And for some reason, all of my selectbox values are showing in the URL as
 parameters.   This is not supposed to happen.   If I remove the parameters
 from the URL line and press enter, it works fine.

 I have another page that works similar to this one (with multiple select
 boxes that submit the form upon selection), that doesn't experience the same
 problem.

 I even changed my form action to go to a plain html page, and it still
 tries to pass all of my form variables in the URL string.

 I went to Microsoft's trouble shooting page for this error.  I've tried
 deleting my browser history, clearing out any cached items, and also
 re-starting IE without Add-Ons.  The server has been restarted as well.
 None of these options have resolved the issue.

 Neither the Apache log nor the Zope error log shows these errors.

'file' must be an open file object and not a string with the binary content.

Almost: file is either a file like object or an str but not unicode.

@Thibaud: encode your unicode to a byte sequence (str)
using an adequate encoding (e.g. 'utf-8').

You should then also indicate the chosen charset in content_type,
e.g. content_type='text/plain; charset=utf-8'.

 No. Don't fiddle with that. Get the form right. That's the basics.
 It might be worth reading up and understanding the basic difference
 between POST and GET and which to use when.

I wasn't suggesting that he fiddles with it, but that someone else may have 
already fiddled, so therefore to check that the default was still extant.

Re: [Zope] Storing unicode in ZODB objects

Hi Dieter,

  That makes a lot of sense, thanks. Once I encode the strings in utf-8
there are no issues.

  That's a great tip about setting the content_type charset correctly. The
way I was handling this so far was to specify it in the header of the page
that was displaying the text:
span
tal:content=nocall:python:request.response.setHeader('Content-Type','text/html;
charset=UTF-8') tal:omit-tag=/span

  But setting the content type is a lot cleaner, so I'll be doing that from
now on.

  Thanks!

Re: [Zope] Storing unicode in ZODB objects

One more thing... as far as I can tell there is still a need to set the
header through a nocall if try to display your file content as part of a
larger page that is generated with out of the box Page Templates or DTML
methods.

So the call that I pasted below should help if anyone else ever runs into
this...
