Subject: [ZPT] checking equality on a defined variable?  Help?
Message-ID: <5EA4B2EDD4BA8B4C84BE11298F81ADC4037625@exchange.microbrightfield.com>


I'm looking for the word 'True' here, but instead I get 'False':

  <span tal:define="which_rmas request/which_rmas | string:'active'">

  Which RMAs?: <span tal:replace="which_rmas"></span>  
  is active?  <span tal:replace="python:which_rmas=='active'"></span>

  </span>

This produces the following:
   Which RMAs?: 'active' is active? False 

Can anyone spot the problem?

Thanks!

^^^^^^^^^^^

This creates a single-quoted string and not an unquoted string.

Message-ID: <5EA4B2EDD4BA8B4C84BE11298F81ADC4037629@exchange.microbrightfield.com>



Hi,

I'm trying to put together a simple database list / edit / add for RMAs.

So far, I have it mostly working for editing.  From my rma list page,
I have links to edit_rma?rma_id=1  and the zsql looks for the rma_id.

In my edit form:

I am doing:  (which only repeats once, and works mostly)
   <span tal:repeat"rma here/retrieve_rma">

Whenever I try the following:
   <!-- S P A N  tal:define="rma here/retrieve_rma" -->
I get a 'tuples indicies must be integers' error


<form action="update_rma">
 <input type="hidden" name="rma_id" value="sample id"
tal:attributes="value rma/id | nothing" />
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="2">
    <tr>
      <td width="27%" valign="bottom">
        <div align="right">Customer Name</div>
      </td>
      <td width="73%" valign="bottom">
<input type="text" name="customerName" value="Current Customer Name"
size="50" tal:attributes="value rma/customerName | nothing"/>
      </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
  
So what I'd like to do instead is have a begin_edit_rma script like:

 request = container.REQUEST
 RESPONSE =  request.RESPONSE

 if request.has_key('rma_id'):
    res = container.retrieve_rma(rma_id=request['rma_id'])
    return container.edit_rma(rma=res.dictionaries()[0])

 # otherwise we're starting blank
 rma={}
 rma['mbf_id']="newrmaid"

 return container.edit_rma(rma)

and then just key off the rma dictionary

But nothing is working 'cause I don't exactly know what I'm doing.
Does anyone have a good example of editing and creating database
records?

Thanks!
-Jim

It is unlikely that this error come from here.

Whenever you get errors, it is essential to look at the traceback.
It tells you where precisely the error was detected.
This is invaluable information.

You find the traceback in the "error_log" object of your Zope
"Root Folder".

Subject: [ZPT] repeat and odd/even question
Message-ID: <002d01c41aa6$a43b4ea0$0200a8c0@NOISE>

Hi ZPT list,

I have a brief question.. I have a tal:repeat running from a db query, and i want to stagger the results in two columns, so
it will look like this:

data1 .. data2
data3 .. data4
data5 .. data6
data7

I am using the odd/even checking and I ALMOST have this working.  My problem is that since the repeat is on a <span>,  and i have to do a lot of html <td> and <tr> formatting for each column, i can't properly close each row.  Here's a psuedocode version of my setup.

<span repeat>
<tr>
if even, do <span><td>left column</td></span>
if odd, do <span><td>right column</td></span>
</tr>
</span>

You can see the problem is that I only want to close the tablerow after it does the right column.  But I can't put the </tr> there inside the odd column's condition, because it breaks because of what i assume are nesting problems.  (a </tr> inside the right column <span> tags, where the opening <tr> is way above it and outside the <span> tags)

for some reason i can't think of a logical solution to this using ZPT...... :(

any help/tips would be MUCH appreciated,
thank you
tim

the cleanest way would be to write a pythonscript that splits your
result sequence into a list of lists
[[data1,data2],[data3,data4],[data5,data6]]

then you can simply loop the outer list for rows and each inner for
the cells.

<tr tal:repeat="row outer_list">
    <td tal:repeat="cell row">
        Note that spans are not technically allowed outside cells in
        tables...
    </td>
</tr>

suddenly , all is a lot cleaner and the need for logic in your
template is a lot smaller :)

Removing HTML is a lot more complex than that ;-) try stripogram's html2safehtml 
  function.

> Only one top level element is allowed in an XML document. Error processing resource 'http://stage.ebizq.net/newsite/prakashtest/rssfeed'. Line 3, Position 6 

this is a pretty explicit error message.

The snippet abvoe doesn't have a single root element as required for XML, as 
stated in the error message...

try:
<root>
  <item tal:repeat="item options/feature">
  <postdate tal:content="item/post_date"> Date Comes here </postdate>
  <head tal:replace="python:here.removeHtml('<text')">Head Comes here</head>
  </item>
</root>

Hi,

It's not unusual for someone to toss Latin-1 into a message accidentally and 
not add an XML declaration to specify the encoding.  Have you checked the 
input message carefully?

Also, what version of Expat are you using?  You should be using 1.95.7 if 
possible, though I don't recall in bugs in the decoding for a long time.  You 
can get the version from Python:

    >>> from xml.parsers import expat
    >>> expat.version_info
    (1, 95, 7)

Hi,

Is there a way in a Python Script called from a Page Template to access the
options name(space) of the page template itself?

Of course this could be passed to the script by using its parameters but I
was thinking more on a binding-based solution (which I couldn't figure out).

There is no implicit binding between namespaces here like there was in
DTML, and that's a good thing! 'options' is just a dictionary (or
dict-alike thing) so it should be easy to map it to kwargs in the python
script or you can just pass it as a single argument. Imagine a script::

  ## Script (Python) "get_stuff"
  ##parameters=stuff
  return 'you passed me %s' % stuff.keys()

And in a template somewhere::

  <div tal:content="python:here.get_stuff(options)">
    Stuff goes here</div>

hth,

I'm really not familiar with DTML (and happy about that from what I've
seen). Does the problem come from the "implicitness"? Why not have an
explicit binding for the calling template, or treating the Script as a
method of the object "template"?

In fact, I was surprised to see that "context" seems to be the folder of the
template and not the template itself.

Well, that's what I'm doing but the clarification was usefull anyways,

What's the correct ZPT syntax for PlacelessTranslationService?

I tried this:

<b i18n:translate="" i18n:domain="ibc" i18n:target="string:cz">Good

This gets rendered into:  <b>Good morning</b>

No translation, although I do have an entry for 'Good morning' in my .po 
file under an 'ibc' domain.

Is my syntax wrong?

Is there something else that needs to be installed? I have:
- vanilla Zope 2.7
- PlacelessTranslationService
- no other products, no Plone, no CMF

Background: The syntax I used is derived from documentation at 
http://dev.zope.org/Members/lalo/PlacelessTranslationService and

Yes. I know that.

Are you implying that the syntax I use  is incorrect for PTS?

I could not find any other resource for ZPT syntax for PTS. That's why I 
used the document at 
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/ZPTInternationalizationSupport.

Can you please tell me what is the correct ZPT syntax for PTS ?

You could call the script in the context of the template (use
python:template.script()), but it would not help you. 'options' is not
an attribute of the template, it is a transient value bound to the call
frame of the template code being executed. It is a run-time variable,
not a persistent data element.

Only if you call it using a path expression.  Try the following pair:

<!-- Page Template "call_script" -->
<pre tal:content="here/print_bind"></pre>
<pre tal:content="python:here.print_bind()"></pre>


## Script (Python) "print_bind"
##bind namespace=b
##parameters=
##
for name in 'options', 'here', 'container':
   try:
     print name, ':', b[name]
   except:
     print name, 'not found in b.'
return printed

Aha! My intuition was rigth. Together with the other remarks from Casey
Duncan, I get it. And from the zope book:

"Namespace
    The Namespace binding is left blank by default. If your script is called
from a DTML Method, and you have chosen a name for this binding, then the
named variable contains the DTML namespace explained in the chapter entitled
Advanced DTML ."

Mutatis mutantis for ZPT and I guess DTML strikes back with a revenge!

It's just a pitty the difference in semantics (in the path vs python syntax)
from what should be the same thing, no?

Care to explain what's going on?

Many thanks,

Fernando

When you use <dtml-var foo>, you are invoking a fair amount of DTML 
"magic" in order to find 'foo' and figure out how to call it.  If 'foo' 
turns out to be a DTML Method or Document, dtml-var knows to pass the 
REQUEST object and the namespace stack to it.  If you have ever been 
forced to use a python expression to call DTML from DTML, you know how 
painful the loss of this "magic" can be -- you end up having to write 
something like <dtml-var expr="foo(REQUEST, _,and_so_forth=1)">.

ZPT has a similar dichotomy.  Path evaluation includes a bit of "magic" 
(although not so much as DTML) to make life easier, and this includes 
recognizing when a called object wants namespace information.  There's a 
(probably undocumented) __render_with_namespace__ interface implemented 
by Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, that allows an object to be called 
DTML-style.  DTML objects don't use this, marking themselves with an 
'isDocTemp' attribute instead :-P

Python expressions, in both worlds, mean exactly what they say.  There's 
very little room for "magic", and certainly no place for trying to 
re-interpret function calls, so you end up having to pass everything 
explicitly.

Cheers,

Evan @ 4-am

Hello,

I get two different results. I would expect the same value.

How can I insert the value of the first input dynamically into an attribute?

What Zope version are you using?

When I looked at the Zope 2.7 code, I had the impression
that entity references were handled correctly *when* they
were produced by "default".
They were escaped, however, when they came from another expression.

In a private copy, I implemented the "structure" keyword that
prevents escaping in a similar way to "tal:content".

Right, this seems to be fixed ind 2.7.

Message-ID: <28A471EF3151244187A887958F39415D0D95AFE6@nhqjexc02.nam.coair.com>

How would I go about adding a user (members) programmatically in plone 2
with their name, password, roles, and domains as fields?

 

I used this script in plone 1.05.

 

 

name = context.REQUEST.get('name')

password = context.REQUEST.get('password')

 

userfolder = getattr(container, 'acl_users')

user_info = { 'name': name,

              'password': password,

              'confirm': password,

              'roles': ['Member'],

              'domains': []

            }

 

userfolder.manage_users(submit='Add', REQUEST=user_info)

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Joe

There has been a hot discussion about such a feature in this
mailing list.

Almost all participants (except me, of course) had strong
objections against the word "structure".
In may view, "structure" means "keep HTML structural elements" in
the value (rather than escape them). This is senseful for both
content as well as attributes.

However, the strong objections almost surely mean: you will
not see "structure" for attributes. Maybe, you will get
the non-escaping functionality with a different keyword...

A discussion about names is one thing, having this feature or having it not 
is another thing.
I am +10 to include this functionality finally in ZPT as soon as possible. 
Why?

 - newbies don't understand why 'structure works only for 
tal:content|replace

 - newbies have problems to workaround the quoting problem

 - the workarounds are  ugly and are usually not intuitive

For the sake of simplicity und usability I would like restart this 
discussion about
this feature again, not about the name. If you don't like 'structure' call 
it 'bob' or
'foobar'.

More to the point, why not ask on the Plone list where people might actually 
have a clue how to help you ;-)

I think structure is just fine. In any case, both words, whatever they are, 
should be the same. I've never found structure particularly descriptive, even in 
its original use. noquote seemed much better to me. BUT, structure is there now, 
and i see no reason to change it, so I'm +10 on structrue for both uses, so we 
can get this in for 2.8....

cheers,

Chris

Message-ID: <5EA4B2EDD4BA8B4C84BE11298F81ADC4067982@exchange.microbrightfield.com>


Hi, I'd like to do something that is probably too complex for a metal:define-macro.  I've got a complex set of javascript and html for a javascript date selector, and it would be great to get the complexity out of my page templates.

I'd like to do something like the (invalid) following code:

<span  metal:define-macro="dateInput"
       tal:define="name <metal:fill-slot="name">"
       tal:define="idname string:${name}id"
       tal:define="buttonname string:${name}button"
       tal:define="initalValue <metal:fill-slot="value">">

In here I would use name, idname, buttonname and initalvalue repeatedly, including inside some dynamically generated javascript.  (I've pasted the complex stuff below.)
 
</span>

Even though I would like to use macros for this sort of thing, I think it's too complex to ever work.  I'm thinkning of doing it with a python script, then I would
 
<span tal:replace="dateInput python:here.makeDateSelector('shipDate', shipment['date'])"></span>

but this doesn't seem right either.  I'm coming from a background of some complex JavaWebComponents in the Tapestry framework.

What's the best way to do this sort of thing?  



The real body of my macro is something like:

<span  metal:define-macro="dateInput"
       tal:define="name string:jim">

<input type="text" name="receivedFromCustomer" id="recFromCust" value="8/27/2003" size="12" tal:attributes="value rma/receivedFromCustomer | nothing" onBlur="magicDate(this)"/>
<button type="reset" id="recFromCustButton">...</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
    Calendar.setup({
        inputField     :    "recFromCust",      // id of the input field
        ifFormat       :    "%m/%d/%Y",       // format of the input field
        showsTime      :    true,            // will display a time selector
        showsWeek      :    false,            // made this up (jc)
        button         :    "recFromCustButton",   // trigger for the calendar (button ID)
        singleClick    :    true,           // double-click mode
        step           :    1                // show all years in drop-down boxes (instead of every other year as default)
    });
</script>
</span>

So you see I have a lot of javascript where I probably can't use metal:fill-slot.

Thanks in advance!

Subject: [ZPT] complex macro usage
In-Reply-To: <5EA4B2EDD4BA8B4C84BE11298F81ADC4067982@exchange.microbrightfield.com>
Message-ID: <LPBBLICABBLMEDAGGKOFMEDPDGAA.fernando@cmartins.demon.nl>

Hi,

please avoid HTML messages in this list. You have no idea how bad it looks
in my side ;-)

Honestly, I don't quite get what you want not even what do you perceive as
complex, but as you got no other reply so far, I'll do some guess work.

It seems your problem is to pass some arguments (variables) to a macro. This
doesn't work because macros are coarse grained: you can only pass through
entire HTML elements. You should also keep in mind that macros are not
running code, it's just a way to do string replacemente; the concept of
subroutines or variables doesn't really apply here.

The trick to overcome this is to put your variables in the HTML elements
above (tree speaking) the element having the use-macro. These variables must
have the same name as the ones in the macro so that when your macro is used
("imported") all the names match up.

HTH,
Fernando

=======================
Hi, I'd like to do something that is probably too complex for a
metal:define-macro.  I've got a complex set of javascript and html for a
javascript date selector, and it would be great to get the complexity out of
my page templates.

I'd like to do something like the (invalid) following code:

<span  metal:define-macro="dateInput"
       tal:define="name <metal:fill-slot="name">"
       tal:define="idname string:${name}id"
       tal:define="buttonname string:${name}button"
       tal:define="initalValue <metal:fill-slot="value">">

In here I would use name, idname, buttonname and initalvalue repeatedly,
including inside some dynamically generated javascript.  (I've pasted the
complex stuff below.)

</span>

Even though I would like to use macros for this sort of thing, I think it's
too complex to ever work.  I'm thinkning of doing it with a python script,
then I would

<span tal:replace="dateInput python:here.makeDateSelector('shipDate',
shipment['date'])"></span>

but this doesn't seem right either.  I'm coming from a background of some
complex JavaWebComponents in the Tapestry framework.

What's the best way to do this sort of thing?



The real body of my macro is something like:

<span  metal:define-macro="dateInput"
       tal:define="name string:jim">

<input type="text" name="receivedFromCustomer" id="recFromCust"
value="8/27/2003" size="12" tal:attributes="value rma/receivedFromCustomer |
nothing" onBlur="magicDate(this)"/>
<button type="reset" id="recFromCustButton">...</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
    Calendar.setup({
        inputField     :    "recFromCust",      // id of the input field
        ifFormat       :    "%m/%d/%Y",       // format of the input field
        showsTime      :    true,            // will display a time selector
        showsWeek      :    false,            // made this up (jc)
        button         :    "recFromCustButton",   // trigger for the
calendar (button ID)
        singleClick    :    true,           // double-click mode
        step           :    1                // show all years in drop-down
boxes (instead of every other year as default)
    });
</script>
</span>

Hi,

            We are trying to get zope to default to UTF-8, but we are having
some stickyness.

 

 - We do have the localizer installed, all the languages are set to UTF-8.

 

 - We do have a meta tag in our header template which specifies UTF-8.

 

However in IE, when I go to View->Encoding it says Western European (ISO).

 

Is there something we missed, any help is great!

Try to send the charset also within your http headers (hint:

Vaibhav,

it is always best to post to a list. I'm transferring this to zpt though as 
it is not related to databases. You might also want to sign up to a Plone 
list as there may be other ways of doing this.

Drop DTML and just use PageTemplates.

This will give you a Zope-Request object which contains the values of the 
form like a dictionary,
ie. request.attr1 or request.form.attr1 will give you the appropriate value.

You should do this using a PythonScript but I think you may well need to 
rethink your application. But anyway here's some code

<div metal:fill-slot="main"
tal:define="userRole request/attr1 | nothing">
> <a 
> tal:condition="python:context.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember().has
> _role(userRole)" href="./plonebook">view pdf</a>
>     
</div>

If you want to make what the user sees dependent on what role they have then 
you will are best using a PythonScript as if/elif is very clumsy in ZPT 
especially compared to "dispatching" in Python.

Hope I have a bit.

Hi,

I have made a DTML document storing the name of some books which i have to post to a Page template here is the coding for the DTML Document.

<html>
<body bgcolor="#0099CC">
<h1>Assign Privileges To book</h1>
<form method=POST action="access2">
  PLONE BOOK<select size="1" name="attr1">
  <option value="CAD">CAD</option>
  <option value="BARC">BARC</option>
  <option value="ADA">ADA</option>
  </select>
  <input type="submit" value="Assign Roles">
  <input type="reset" value="Reset"></p>
</form>

in this DTML Document  

1. the options specified by the select tag are some of the roles defined by me.
2. access2 is the Page template to which this value is to be passed

here is the code for access2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en-US"
      lang="en-US"
      metal:use-macro="here/main_template/macros/master">

<body>
<div metal:fill-slot="main" tal:define="user request/form/attr1">
<a tal:condition="python:context.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember().has_role('user')" href="./plonebook">view pdf</a> 
     
</div>
       
</body>
</html>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now i want that the link to the book to be displayed by the page template on the basis of value of 'attr1' passed to it by the form i.e the python conditional statement which checks for role should decide the role based on the value passed to it. 
 
But here comes the problem since i log in using the login_form, it although authenticates the user but when it redirects to access2 the value of 'attr1' becomes undefined as login_form posts no such value to access2
 
Please help me to correct this problem.
Thanks in advance

Vaibhav

I would like to do something like this:

The idea being that I would get a resulting url like "mysite/fish?content=trout"
I can't seem to figure out what the correct way to do this would be
though, and I don't see anything like this in any of the zpt docs.

Message-ID: <20040501030722.GC16449@mail.my-balls.com>

I am attempting to include different content based on a variable in the
url, fish?content=trout.  In my template doing something like:

<span tal:replace="structure request/content">content goes here</span>

ends up replacing the tag with the string "trout" instead of the
contents of the file named trout.  I thought I could work around this by
forcing it to be interpreted as a path using path:request/content, but
that didn't actually change anything.  Is there a way to include a file
based on a variable like this?

Thanks
