[Zope3-Users] A online book for Zope 3
Hi all, I was thinking of writing an online book for Zope 3. I have no experience in writing a book. But I had written few successful articles. This is my first attempt to write an online book. I want this to be concise book. My two motivation books for writing in this style is UML Distilled by Martin Fowler and Python in a Nutshell by Alex Martelli. I welcomes your contribution to this work. Regards, Baiju M ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
[Zope3-Users] zc.tables integration with Zope3
Hi. I am wondering if zc.tables could not be incorporated into Zope3 trunk. My rational for its inclusion is so that the contents views may be refactored to use it. The current contents view makes little sense without batching and sorting. The ZMI could really use this basic face lift to bring it in line with the fundamental views provided in its Zope2 counterpart. I'd also suggest that the Boston skin be given preference over rotterdam as the default skin for zope. Beyond this, a batching utility package is really needed in the way that ZTUtils provided this support in Zope2. While schooltool has this support, its GPL status does not make it accessible to non GPL developers (that might anticipate this generic utility in the code base). There are some really complex packages out there but this basic utility is still not available in our toolset. Many thanks.

I have started a branch for another iteration, but it will take me a while to complete. My goal is to cleanly include some of my enhancements (already checked in for demonstration), to generalize the code and make a div based alternative.

(X)HTML tables are entirely reasonable for tabular data, which is the only use case I'm aware of. That depends on the designer you talk to. :-) I agree with you, but I have this requirement.
