If this approach would let users email content into things like the PTK, or more generally to create Zope objects by emailing content to an address that corresponds to a Zope method or object then that's what I'm on about. Archiving mailing lists shouldn't be a big issue since there are already Zope mailing list archives that are searchable in ways currently more powerful than ZCatalog has to offer. Note that no mailing list software I know of tries to be an MTA. With sooo many different implementation issues, making zope an MTA would be a big challenge, IMNSHO.

[Zope] Zope URLS (was re: WebObjects)
Gregor Hoffleit wrote: Regarding wget: AFAICS, the problem is that traditionally in a static web server, if you try to access a URL like 'http://host/xyz' (without trailing slash), the server will return you an error '301 Moved permanently' and will point you to the new location 'http://host/xyz/'. Zope instead (if 'xyz' is a folder and there's a document 'xyz/index_html') immediately returns the rendered index_html if you request 'http://host/xyz'. Now whenever the 301 to the URL with a trailing slash happens, wget takes this as a hint that this path must have been a directory, and saves the result as index.html. With Zope, wget doesn't get this hint. Reading this again, I wonder if this qualifies as a bug in Zope, or is there a good reason for this behavior ? It's not so much a bug as a complication caused by the fact that Zope isn't a filesystem server, but an orb presented through the web (correct me if I'm slightly out ;-) For example http://host/x/y/z Could be: -A container object z (which should have a / after it?) -A dtml-document in folder /x/y/ -The result of executing the z method on the y object in the /x/ folder. -The result of executing the z method on the result of executing the y method on the x object in the root folder. I'm sure acquisition adds some more options/confusions to this... ;-) So, that's the problem, I don't know what the solution is :( I do think there must be a better way than Zope's kludgey BASE tag thing. Maybe all Zope URLs should end in a / ?

Rik Hoekstra wrote: so what is the use of the /? Couldn't all Zope URLs end without a /? I'm afraid this is the whole problem and it's caused by relative urls. Say you're at http://host/x/y where y is a container that renders index_html to be displayed, and in that index_html you haev a ref: a href="b"b/a Now what you mean by that is http://host/x/y/b but because there's no / on the end, you actually get http://host/x/b How Zope handles this is by sticking in that godawful base tag: base href="http://hosy/x/y/" which makes relative URLs work properly. BUT, from what Gregor said earlier is a 'non-standard' way of doing it: traditionally in a static web server, if you try to access a URL like 'http://host/xyz' (without trailing slash), the server will return you an error '301 Moved permanently' and will point you to the new location 'http://host/xyz/ which is why I suggested all Zope URLs should end in / as all zope objects can be containers in the 'traditional' sense.

I don't know the answer to the sideeffects thing, but I would come down on the site of 'if you expose something through the web, you should expect to have it spidered...' but that's cause I value search engine hits a lot. The trick would be to set the content type when the object is created and have it stored in the object, not computed for each request. Would a property suffice for that? Then, say, if you knew your DTML method was going to return plain text, you could set the content-type property to text/plain. Thsi could be returned in the head without having to evaluate the object to return the head, which is a bit innefficient. I'm sure that's possible and better than it is now, but at the absolute least the junk should cover the most likely outcome, ie text/html instead of application/octet-stream, which is possibly the worst one I can think to choose ;-) cheers, Chris ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

We need to display the description field (but not the long desc) on the search results, so to implement this, we can either stick the desc in the catalog meta-table, or use getobject as you suggested to retrieve the object (and hence the required attributes). Initially, I'm a bit worried about sticking the desc in the meta-table 'cause it's relatively big compared to the other attributes. Maybe it's still cheaper than getting the object (which includes the much bigger long desc field) every time? Seen similar situation before? Any help is appreciated. Well, given that it's going to be easier and cleaner for you to put it in the metadata table I'd d othat. I can really see any problems with this.

This is natural, too. Why should a registered user have less authorization than an anonymous one. Or, to put it another way, just because an acl_users folder doesn't know anything about a user, why should that user not have the anonymous role?

[Zope] Comments on 2.2 Help System
Apart from the 'Wow! Zope has Help!' comment: The API documentation is very useful. How do we feedback about it? (eg: why is there PropertySheet and PropertySheets?) When will it be complete? How do we submit docs to appear in it? What is the moderation process like? Sadly, the rest of the 'Zope Help' section needs a lot more structure to be useful. At the moment, the names don't even fit in their browser pane :( Perhaps something along the lines of the portal structure on zdp.zope.org would be useful for categorising these documents? If these are the 'help screens' you get when you click the help button, maybe they shouldn't be listed here at all? I have to say, I think the M$ help system on Windows might be a better model: 1. A Contents Page - kindof like the zdp portal listing, or a contents section of a book. 2. An index page - A list of all the documents in the help system, which seems to be largely what the 'contents' tab is now. 3. Search - which needs to be explained better than it is. Can boolean searching be used? Do I need to quote things? How do I search for dtml-in? (Maybe a help screen would be useful ;-) Maybe there should be links to the Contents Page as well as help on your current location from in the management interface? Finally, you should make it clear elsewhere that /HelpSys on your site will go to the Zope help system. Maybe this needs to be blockable, after all, why should www.mysite.com/HelpSys give the Zope help system, when I might want it to be my company's help system for their products? Which suggests that maybe the help system should be a separate product from Zope, running on its own server. For example, take a company which has LOTS of zope servers. The sysadmin would prefer to maintain one up-to-date copy of the Zope docs on a 'documentation server' which has documentation for all the Zope versions in use, rather than wastefully running the same number of documentation servers as there are Zope instances... ...heaven forbid, DC could actually run a master one of these at doc.zope.org which would be the most complete and up to date...

How about the nasty hacky mess that is DTML?
Some priceless artifacts that need to go:
dtml-var "someMethod(_, _.None, myparam)"
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('keyname','value')"
dtml-let x="'hello out there'"
dtml-var "_[REQUEST['myDoc']]"What is this supposed to do?!

There's dtml-tree too, but hopefully I'm going to land very hard on that
tomorrow and beat it into something like a decent shape ;-)
While I'm at it, how about some docs for the manage_* methods in the
interfaces Wiki?
/RANT
Okay, seriously, DTML is really hurting Zope's chances with a lot of
people/companies. DTML should be easier than, say, creating a Form in
Lotus Notes or writing a component in Mason. That requries, IMHO:
1. Clear definition of when it should be used.
2. A clean, concise syntax (like Python, DTML is more like Perl right
now ;-)
3. Good documentation (much easier to do if 1 and 2 are met...)
I also think having Python Methods ship with Zope would really help...
There are niggles (like the rediculous id problem) which you can live
with, but doing anything other than the really mundane in DTML means
extreme hair loss right now, which is not good.
I wonder how many other people would agree with me: nevermind ZEO, or
the PTK, ZPatterns or any new fancy functionality. Can we at least have
a decent template language that doesn't confuse the hell out of newbies
and oldbies alike...
cheers,
Chris
(Who just spent 1/2 hour figuring out how to do a multi-language site in
Zope, and now after 6hrs of trying has given up doing a recursive tree
copy to get the old site into the new structure with a DTML method or
two and is resorting to ugly hacky external methods because Python
Methods arent' around/stable)
PS: Zope: yes it makes the hard things very easy, but it makes the easy
things very hard, so it all balances out nicely... ;-)

How about a "namespace inspector"? It could provide an easy way to
find out what methods are available and the what the calling

could be automatically invoked when exceptions occur (under certain
conditions), making it a Zope debugging tool.
Sounds interesting but it's never going to beat a decent paper reference
with examples...
I'm working on enhancing Python Methods right now. I'm close to
getting them properly interfaced with DTML namespaces, so that DTML can
invoke Python Methods using simpler DTML syntax.

That's asking for trouble 'cos Zope ain't gonna like an id such as 'Count(usr_email)', it's a great idea though :-) Here's how you might need to rephrase it to make Zope happy: "select Count(usr_email) as usremail from info(table name) where usr_email = dtml-sqlvar usr_email type=string" HTH, Chris ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Of course Luis made a very valid point, validate your HTML first before you worry about CSS. I find Dreamweaver 3's checks for browser compatability quite useful here as well.
