[Pythoncard-users] Hmmm... Anyone have a suggestion? (HTML Window with Virtually mounted ZIP file)

[Schollnick, B. <Ben...@xe...>]

Folks,

	I am attempting to do two things:

	1) Access a virtual file system containing the contents of a ZIP
file.  This has been achieved, via using the VFS / ZipFS from skunkWeb.

	2) Use a HTML Window component to view the HTML contents....
This is partially usable...  But there is several major issues.


	The issues are:

	1) [Minor] HTML Window is not frames enabled...
	2) The following code works okay...

        self.directory, self.zip_filename =3D self.Choose_Zip_File  ( )
        self.directory =3D self.directory + os.sep
        print self.directory
        print self.zip_filename
        self.zipfile =3D zipfs.ZipFS ( self.directory + =
self.zip_filename
)
        open =3D self.zipfile.open

        if self.zipfile.isfile ("default.htm"):
            tempfile =3D self.zipfile.open (r"default.htm")=20
            text =3D "".join (tempfile.readlines () )

        self.components.BookViewer.text =3D "".join =
(tempfile.readlines())

	But the HTML Window does not properly display the graphics, nor
	can it navigate the HTML file.  Any links that are clicked are
	"broken"... =20

	So I suspect the WX HTML viewer does not use the Python Open
command...  Since I re-assigned OPEN to the zipfile open routines...

	Any suggestions on working around this?  I can deal with the
lack of=20
	frames.... But I really need to be able to view the graphics,
and
	follow the links...
