[Zope] Re: utf-8 problem in Zope when using Localizer

2007-09-04 Thread Josef Meile

Install a separate python that is used only by your zope instance. Use
setdefaultencoding only there.



This is nonense. A custom sitecustomize.py script does the job without 
installing a complete new Python.

You need to read a previous reply:

I set it global in sitecustomize.py under 
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages and then



dtml-var MessageCatalog('Hallo Welt!')

works. Now I only must find the right place for setdefaultencoding() so
it only affect my zope-instance.
For the path used there /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages, it seems
that the python used by zope is a binary that comes into a rpm package,
so, this may break some things on the OS. So, I guess a new python for
only zope makes sense here

Re: [Zope] SOAPMethod

2007-09-04 Thread Mark Baldry
Hi Tom

to be honest i would much rather use DTML as i understand this but it doesn't 
seem to work it only returns the result of the SOAP query when i view the 
source code. The SOAPMethod product recommends DTML but I have followed the 
example they give and this is what is happening.

  Hi Mark,
 
  There's nothing wrong with using DTML instead of TAL. each have their
  drawbacks and benefits and it really comes down to user choice and  job
  requirements. People on this list though will always recommend  TAL
  because they are mostly developers who use WYSIWYG html editors.  If you
  hand code your design markup dtml can be much cleaner, require  less code

Hi Tom

to be honest i would much rather use DTML as i understand this but it 
doesn't

seem to work it only returns the result of the SOAP query when i view the
source code. The SOAPMethod product recommends DTML but I have followed 
the

example they give and this is what is happening.


 I have installed the SOAPMethod and have got it working but i  cannot

 source of
 the page.

 the dtml Method i am using is written -

 dtml-var expr=requestStudentData('5506239')

 this is what the help that came with the product says to use.

 (requestStudentData is the name of the SOAPMethod and 5506239 is 
 the

 query
 string i am passing to the database.)


If I understand correctly, you are saying that the requestStudentData method 
is returning the correct information, but that information is not displaying 
in your web browser, and that you can only see the information returned by 
requestStudentData if you view the source for the page.


If this is the case, then it sounds like an html/css display problem, not a 
dtml problem.  To verify this, create a dtml method that contains:


html
headtitleTesting/title/head
body
dtml-var requestStudentData('5506239')
/body
/html

If the information displays correctly when you click on the View tab for the 
above dtml method then you know that you have an html/css problem in your 
original dtml method.  If you don't see the correct information, then your 
'requestStudentData' method is not functioning correctly.

See Johnathan's comment. It sounds like an html/css issue. If it  
renders in the source its working.

Your requestStudentData method is returning XML encoded data, so you need to 
write a dtml method (or script) that will display the xml fields.  This may 
give you some ideas:

RE: [Zope] UTF encoding problem w/ ZPT's (No, not the usual :)

2007-09-04 Thread Doyon, Jean-Francois
Well it tries to call only because the varial ISN'T a str :)

If it's a string it behaves one way, else, it behaves another, and tries
to call what it got.  I imagine there's circumstances where this is
used.

I'll put something in the collector then, and we'll see where it goes.

 The problem is that zope.tales.tales.evaluate() tests for a str ... 
 But, now, for unknown reasons, it's getting a unicode string.

...but even if it got an str, str's aren't callable either.

Might be something to look at...

There is no need to put sitecustomize.py in the global
Python distribution. Any place on the PYTHONPATH as effective
when Python starts is sufficient.

We ensure that $INSTANCE_HOME/lib/python is on this path
and then can put sitecustomize.py there.
