re: [Zope] working with urls
Simplest might be to point a Path Handler (http://www.zope.org/Members/NIP/PathHandler) named 'generate' at your PDF generator script. Also, a Script(Python) 'generate' containing: return traverse_subpath when called http://mysite.com/generate/foo/bar/baz returns: ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'] This could be useful for the URL re-writing you want.

Re: [Zope] working with urls
Because it's a bit ugly - my url will grow a lot, because I have to include the variable name. It's also really simple to make the product generate a PDF if the user know the ref_date and code, without playing with variable names. Obviously if it's not possible I will generate a normal querystring, no problem at all, I'm just curious to know if it's possible to have urls like in ruby on rails :) TIA, ngwJonathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ha scritto: Why don't you identify the variable data portion of the urls you are building as standard http-type arguments: eg. http://www.myweb.com/amethod?var1=val1&var2=val2...

What I'd like is having an url like: myproduct/generate/20050301/PG2, and actually that's exactly what I've got. This url will make my app generate a pdf report for the ref_date 2005/03/01 and code PG2 (ref_date and code are internal data). Zope obviously maps the url as an object, but that's not what I want: I want to parse the url and use the ref_date and code data inside a generate method. Is it possible inside Zope without mod_rewriting and similar stuff ? I don't like querystring, the resulting url would be too long and difficult to paste.
