ROTFL! There are days when the Zope world gets just a tad frustrating aren't there? In the meantime, the best solution to the problem is probably to implement the code that does the actual work in Zope and use cron + xmlrpc to trigger it to go off at the right time. ___ 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 )
RE: [Zope] syndication??
Wow!!! ZScheduler sounds perfect! I'm assuming that it is the one that doesn't work. What is involved to make it work? With my limited knowledge of both Python and Zope, I don't know that I could be much help. However, I'd be willing to help out any way I can. -Jamey > -Original Message- > From: Chris Withers [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2000 11:23 AM > To: Webmaster > Cc: Zope Mailing List > Subject: Re: [Zope] syndication?? > > Webmaster wrote: > > The concept is simple enough, but I just don't know how I could do the > same > > thing in Zope.

[Zope] syndication??
A few weeks ago I went to an Allaire Spectra seminar (Spectra is Allaire's $15,000 Zope). It was a very nice presentation and the fundamental principles were quite similar. I have played around with Spectra and I found it to be super clunky with way to many steps from point A to point B. Not to mention the fact that it is only "object like". I could go on but this is not meant to be a comparison study. However, with that said, there was one particular "out-of-the-box" feature that really impressed me. In spectra you can take and "object" (article, image, etc) and set it up for syndication. One of the syndication options is to send the "object" via email at a set time. So you could have a news page summary set up to send itself out to a distribution email list on a certain day. The concept is simple enough, but I just don't know how I could do the same thing in Zope. I am setting up a system where daily articles can be entered weeks in advance and will only appear on the web site when the date matches their "go live date" (easy). But I would also like the article to be emailed to my distribution email list on its "go live date". Is anyone doing this? If so could you enlighten me on how?
