[Zope] session data object question
Hi I was wondering if there is a way to connect the creation of a session object to a button push. I'll explain in more detail: I have a log in from called login_form, and I have a dtml method called looged_in that is called when we push the submit button in the log in form. What I did is the following, in the log_in_form I get a session data object only if it exsists and I check how much time passed and act accordingly, in the looged_in method I create the data session oblject ans set the start time. Unfortuantly that is not good for me because if a user refreshes the page it resets the time in the session object, I was wondering if there is a way for me to know if I can reset the session data time only when the user clicks the submit button and not as a result of a refresh call. I tried looking on the web and in the zope book but I couldn't find anything. ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] session data object question
Hi I have a button like that but the the problem is that it also has this value if I refresh the page, what I mean Is this, I put in the logged_in page: dtml-if Request.has_key('theButton') Do something /dtml-if And it has the key even if I refresh the page. I also tried to put dtm-var theButton to see if it keeps this value after we refresh the page and it does. What I need is a way to know if we loaded the page as a result of pressing the button or as a result of refreshing the page, as I need to do different things in each case. -Original Message- From: Andrew Milton [mailto:a...@theinternet.com.au] Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 10:15 AM To: Dvir Bar-lev Cc: zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] session data object question +---[ Dvir Bar-lev ]-- | Hi | | | | I was wondering if there is a way to connect the creation of a session object | to a button push. | | I?ll explain in more detail: | | | | I have a log in from called login_form, and I have a dtml method called | looged_in that is called when we push the submit button in the log in form. | | What I did is the following, in the log_in_form I get a session data object | only if it exsists and I check how much time passed and act accordingly, in the | looged_in method I create the data session oblject ans set the start time. | | Unfortuantly that is not good for me because if a user refreshes the page it | resets the time in the session object, I was wondering if there is a way for me | to know if I can reset the session data time only when the user clicks the | submit button and not as a result of a refresh call.

Re: [Zope] session data object question
I also tried to change the value of theButton key like so: dtml-if REQUEST.has_key('submit') dtml-if REQUEST.get('submit') == 'Login' dtml-call REQUEST.set('submit', 'LoggedIn') /dtml-if /dtml-if But if refresh the button it still thinks it has the value Login instead of the value LoggedIn :( -Original Message- From: zope-boun...@zope.org [mailto:zope-boun...@zope.org] On Behalf Of Dvir Bar-lev Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 10:33 AM To: zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] session data object question Hi I have a button like that but the the problem is that it also has this value if I refresh the page, what I mean Is this, I put in the logged_in page: dtml-if Request.has_key('theButton') Do something /dtml-if And it has the key even if I refresh the page.
