Contrary to what you might think, DTML isn't the only programming
language available to you in Zope. Take a look at Zope Page Templates
(ZPT), a template-based alternative that makes it easier for designers
and
developers to collaborate on Zope application development.

PHP Cookbook Ch 8: Web Basics (PDF)
PHP Cookbook Ch 8: Web Basics (PDF)11/11/2002 06:02 AM Web programming is probably why you’re reading this book. It’s why
the first version
of PHP was written and what continues to make it so popular today. PHP
makes
it easy to write dynamic web programs that do almost anything. Other
chapters
cover various PHP capabilities, like graphics, regular expressions,
database access,
and file I/O. These capabilities are all part of web programming, but
this chapter
focuses on some web-specific concepts and organizational topics that
will make your
web programming stronger.
Five XSLT Basics12/02/2003 01:58 AM You've just inherited a new project at work that requires you to learn
XSLT, but you don't have a clue where to start. This article by

five basics of XSLT 1.0--from what it is to how to get it to
work--information you'll also find in the first chapter of Michael's
book, Learning
XSLT.

AppleScript Basics08/12/2004 01:26 PM You use AppleScript's Script Editor application to write small
programs or scripts that include specially worded statements.
AppleScript statements are converted by Mac OS into Apple
events--messages that can be understood by the operating system and
applications. When you run a script, the script can send instructions
to the operating system or applications and receive messages in
return.

Although its limited to USB
1.1 speeds, the new USB Flash Drive Duplicator from Nexcopy could come
in very handy to the select few that could make use of it. Functioning
as a standalone device (no PC needed), up to 20 USB flash drives can
be duplicated from a single source; you can even daisy-chain multiple
units for more mass copying. Loading up the day's data for your fleet
of pestering salesmen has never been easier!
According to one report two Australians, including a knight who has

Both are important for lowering bandwidth use. If I had to rank them,
I’d say conditional GET is more important—but I find that
there are lots of sites, even some very popular sites, that still
don’t support conditional GET.
It looks like most (if not all) of the popular weblog hosting systems
support conditional GET, which is very cool. It appears to be mainly
custom content management systems used by one or just a few sites that
tend not to support it. You can almost count on lack of support if the
RSS or Atom feed is generated live by a script instead of being served
as a static file.
(Note that I intend no disrespect for people and organizations that
develop their own systems—I myself use a custom system written
in PHP.)
About Conditional Comments: A handy but pretty obscure
feature of Internet Explorer. A special comment format lets only IE
see certain HTML / CSS code. So make that Web page look good in
Mozilla and Opera, then hide the code necessary for IE in these
comments.
Conditional comments have certain advantages over
scripting methods of browser detection. When a downlevel browser
encounters a downlevel-hidden conditional comment, the browser does
not see the inner HTML inside the comment, and the content elements
are not downloaded and rendered. This saves both bandwidth and machine
resources.
I had never heard of this until Joe showed it to me one day. It's
kludge, sure, but it's endorsed kludge and it really is
handy.

Zope is a beautifully integrated set of solutions to
common web development problems. It works in a substantially different
way to traditionally scripted web-applications. Think of it as a
collection of objects help with web publishing rather than a set of
scripts to do a job.
I have personally tried to use Zope on two separate occasions, but
I just couldn't get past the voodoo of it all. If you're coming from
a "standard" scripting background, be prepared to leave everything you
know at the door.
If you read through the comments, Zope seems to come out on the
short end of the stick. Many more complaints than endorsements.
There was also a link to FreeZope, which will give you a
free Zope site to work with and try it out. If you do, post back here
with your experience.

I must say that most PHP systems such as PHP-Nuke or Post-Nuke still cannot compare with
Zope, although they are improving. The only one that comes close AFAIK
is EZ Publish. Midgard is another one that's
supposed to be very good, but I've never figured how to install it
(remember I am only a generalist).

provides the basic services provided by CGI, such as allowing users to
log on to e-commerce web sites and community portals in order to

on a Linux or UNIX system, and explain a few of the concepts you'll
need to understand in order to be able to be productive with it.
