It refused to allow me to log on, despite my changing my IE Privacy Setting to MEDIUM.

Can you help ?

I have just started my website devoted to free software in UK schools with the emphasis at the moment on my school. It is a CMF so it is easy to post new work. On it I intend to post every file that I have made with free software along with examples of my student's work. There are a few things there now but this will increase over the next few days and especially over Xmas. Please feel free to take anything that you could use, or you may wish to join and add your own files?

Colin (and Gary) and anyone else interested in Zope,

Please join the Zope UK e-group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/zuguk/

I tried but I am not a Yahoo member. regards garry

There was a zuguk meeting last week where it was felt that the Zope UK community needs nuturing.

We are going to set up a Zope UK website soon (someone is working on it now :)

Best,

Josef.

Well done Garry, lovely site. I have managed to join and needed to add the site to my trusted sites. Who is hosting the site is it a school server?

I hope to get into zope soon. I have started but have found it difficult to contol the layout as well as you seem to be doing. I can handle the folder structure OK but how do you do the navigation block on the left?

I am hosting it myself on the school Zope server but it is a redirect through our LEA firewall.

This is just a normal part of the Plone site. If you want to do it like you see, get Plone and Zope from www.plone.org. As the admin you can add folders to the top level, publish them and they appear here. If you don't publish, only the admin will see them. The learning curve for Zope/Plone is quite steep. I do not think that most people who just give it a cursory look appreciate the power and wealth of opportunities that the combination affords to those with a little more patience than the rest. To use Plone you don't need to know any of the Zope techniques (dtml, page templates etc.) just read the docs and get a test setup and play, that's all that I did. Most of all, trust it because it works. I can't praise Zope/Plone too highly. Nice to know that someone else is interested enough to give it a go:-) regards garry
