Greetings,

I have setup a Plone site for a Biology application and now I would like to generate a set of standard folders to contain information on a set of genes. That is I want a folder for each gene in a list of approximately 10.000 genes. How can I generate these automagically ? Does anyone have a php script to do this ?

PHP? We're part of the Python world here ;-)

Or do I have to make a script to do it through lynx … - which I would like to avoid. Or is there a really smart way of doing this in Plone/Zope

In a custom TTW Python script to be called on the parent of
these new folders do something like:

new_folder_data = ((id1, title1), (id2, title2), ...)

for id, title in new_folder_data:
    context.invokeFactory('Folder', id)
    context[id].setTitle(title)
    context[id].reindexObject()
