There are a couple more views like that for a folder and they are registered via the browser:containerViews directive. So how can I do this? And going further, how would I be able to access all defined objects from main page (how can I make on my own what now is automatic). I don't understand what you mean by access all defined objects from main page. You need to be more specific.

A long time ago I've implemented a web page like this in 100% pure code and what I've done was: - Examine the GET/POST to get passed parameter. - used default value for blank parameter. - create the graph and write it on a temporary name on HD. - construct the HTML returned code with a img src=... pointing to the graph - return the code to the remote browser. You want to write two views. One that displays the graph and the form and another that generates the graph. There are several options here: 1. You have a custom content object that stores the configuration from the HTML. During image generation, you simply use the data. 2. The HTML data is simply encoded in the image source URL and is used by the image generating view: img src=.../graph.jpg?x-axis-max=20... / Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter CBU Physics Chemistry (B.S.) / Tufts Physics (Ph.D. student) Web2k - Web Software Design, Development and Training ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

Either we need to provide a more verbose description of what the name is for or perhaps, as Stephan has suggested, for components that are always looked up without names, we should not provide the option of entering a name and, for others, we should require a name. IMO, the PAU pattern of not taking a name works well. The confusion above may be a hold-over from the time when PAU regs did accept names. Right. In my opinion all nameless utilities are what services used to be. I have not yet seen an exception to this rule. The terminology I introduced for them in the new Tools UI (now called Site Management) is Unique Utilities, since they are unique to a given site.

Stephan Richter wrote: Congratulations, though I know its late! :-) There might be some interest in the Z3-ECM community of a JSON server. I would hope there would be interest in Z3-ECM. JSON's almost-python notation is very fast to read and write, and particularly so with minjson.py, which is part of the project. Of course, JSON(-RPC) only transports text-ish things; images and such need a different transport, I think. And I probably should have been a bit more explanatory on a couple of things in my announcement: 1. Since it is in my svn repository, and still alpha, it will change (presumably improve) as I see fit. If anyone sees anything that needs improving, let me know; I'm still enthusiastic about the project, so updates can happen quickly. In fact, I just did a minor update. Debug info now uses the logging facility instead of simply printing on the console :) . I'll wait until I hear positive things from anyone needing unicode (still a nagging worry) with it before I make a beta announcement. 2. My subversion repository is http only: svn co http://brigadoon.hill-street.net/svn/repos/jsonserver/trunk jsonserver will work OK. I did not bother poking another hole in the firewall for svn:// 3. minjson.py (also updated an hour or so ago) seems to work OK in pythons 2.3 and 2.4 4. If there's interest, I could probably put together and include a simple demonstration application. I am open for suggestions on what that app might be. BTW, I have also deicded that I will tackle the HTTPRequestFactory issue for 3.2 by developing some sort of registry based on subscribers that decides based on registered subscribers which request to create.

You should be able to define the menu item for the class. If you can't I'd consider that a bug.

Thanks everyone for your responses - they were very informative.
