This is a little demo of how RDF and XUL can be combined, to model the tree found in the left hand side of the Zope frame.

Mozilla is required.

Static Demo

You can see a static demo of the tree if you are using Mozilla to view this page. A button will be displayed automatically.

The RDF data for this tree is not generated, but a static copy of a default Zope installation with one (test) ZClass added.

Installation

Unpack this file in the root of your Zope installation. It will create (if not yet there) a import subdirectory, in wich it will place 4 files.

Next, import these files into your Zope root Folder: click on Import/Export, and using the bottom textbox, import itemRDF.zexp, tree.rdf.zexp, tree.xul.zexp and tree.zexp.

Then, point your Mozilla browser at http://your.server.url/tree and click on the button. If you haven't logged in as a user with management privileges, Mozilla will ask you for these. Have fun!

Possible extensions

• Sortable columns
• Plus/minus icons
