This was just an initial experiment with mozilla and zope. This product will not be updated here. You can instead look at the Zope Studio (announcement) to find something a lot more functional.

For a bigger picture of the efforts for integrating zope and mozilla look at the Zope-Mozilla Initiative.

What's this?

This is a demo and has been derived from The Zope management tree in RDF and XUL.

It shows the contents of a Zope installation in an explorer-like view. Have a look.

What works?

Not much. The tree view in the left-pane is functional (expand/collapse) and linked to the contents view in the right-pane. The items in the tree on the left can be clicked on to display their contents on the right. The icons are native zope. That's about it.

No modification to the Zope installation is possible.

I want one too!

Requirements:-

1. You need mozilla, obviously. I've tested with Milestone12.
2. Zope version 2.1.2
3. Martijn Pieters' Zope management tree in RDF and XUL. Not all four files are essential - only these two : itemRDF and tree.rdf

Installation:-
Unpack this file in the root of your Zope installation. It will plunk six files in the import directory. Import all six into the root of your Zope installation. The files are : contents.rdf.zexp, itemiconcss.zexp, main.css.zexp, thisitemRDF.zexp, zide.js.zexp, and zide.xul.zexp

Execution:-
Use the following command to launch mozilla directly into 'zide mode':

mozilla -chrome http://my.zopesite.com/zide.xul

Alternatively, fire up mozilla and type http://my.zopesite.com/zide.xul in the address box. It will ask for the username and password. Enjoy!
