Webware for Python

I have a problem with FunFormKit 0.4.1. If I check some values in a
`MultiCheckboxField` display and the form is redisplayed after a
failed validation, the check marks are removed in the redisplayed
form. For comparison, `TextField`s and `RadioField`s work fine.

Another problem I found in code for some fields; in several places the
format `"%s_%2i" % (name, id)` is used for ids. However, for ids lower
than 10 this results in names like "name_ 3" (note the space) which
may cause trouble with some browsers.

Additionally, I had a misunderstanding regarding the docs (or the
source code): For mutable form definitions, I used `fieldNames` to
request and then delete all fields (at least, I thought that would
work ;-) ). However, a few fields were/are not in the list returned by
`fieldNames`; I had to use `fields().keys()` instead to get all
fields.

Subsequent easter-egg troubleshooting has led us to set the prefetch size to
None for the problematic query.  That fixed the problem FOR THAT QUERY.  I
don't understand why, and I don't want to turn prefetching off for every
query, so I'm still troubled...
 
Another source said that including all selected columns in an order by
clause would work, but that didn't turn out to be true.
 
I won't bug the Webware list with this any more--and sorry again for an
off-topic post--I just want to close the loop from my first off-topic post.
 
Now I'm back to work on the spinning-thread issue.

Cheers!

Subject: [Webware-discuss] Oracle/DCOracle/Python problem while using
Webware



First, sorry for the off-topic posting, but I'm trying several venues with
this question because it's becoming a larger problem.  This is not a Webware
problem, nor probably a Python or even DCOracle2 problem, but it's biting us
in the backside in some of our applications.

We use Oracle and DCOracle2 as our DB API-2.0-compliant connector.
Unfortunately, we're occasionally getting erroneous NULLs returned for
columns when the result set is a bit larger than a few (we see the problem
when 140 rows are returned, but not when 5 are returned).  For example, a
column might have character data: 'FreeText' in it, but when we get it back
from DCOracle2 its None (meaning NULL).  Turning on an Oracle trace shows
that Oracle itself is returning the NULL, which seems like a Bad Thing To
Do.

Has anybody else encountered this?  It shows up on a Zope mailing list, but
without any workaround suggested. 

Again, sorry for the o/t posting--I'm a little desperate. 

Cheers!

Hi,

I use the SecurePage from Examples to secure an application. 
Is there a reason, the cookie it sets for the session is not
set with the secure flag? Where would one change this?

btw: is this a closed list for experts? I wonder why I never
got an answer to any question on this list. I don't want to
pollute such a list with my newbie questions -- where is the
one for me?

- Ralf
