Installing htmlArea for Zope

The files

There are six installation files; choose the one you need:

htmlarea-x.y-full-2.03.tgz
a full version containing the x.y version of the Zope product, and the 2.03 version of htmlarea. Convenient for most cases.
htmlarea-x.y-full-2.03.zip
the same, zip version
htmlarea-x.y.tgz
a plugin version containing the x.y version of the Zope product. Doesn't contain any unchanged files of the original htmlarea package; you need htmlarea from http://www.interactivetools.com/products/htmlarea/ additionally.
htmlarea-x.y.zip
the same, zip version
htmlarea-x.y-update.tgz
an update, in case you have an earlier version of htmlArea for Zope installed.
htmlarea-x.y-update.zip
the same, zip version

All archives contain an htmlarea directory.

How to install htmlArea for Zope

  1. If you want the full version, get your preferred ...full... archive and unpack it in your {Zope}/lib/python/Products directory. A htmlarea directory is created. Procede with step 2.

    If you want to use another version of htmlarea (or have it already), first get htmlarea from Interactive Tools, URL: http://www.interactivetools.com/products/htmlarea/. This Zope Product was built based on version 2.03.

    Download it and unpack it into your Zope Products directory. Make sure the files, and the directories images and popups, are located in lib/python/Products/htmlarea afterwards.

    Unpack the htmlarea-x.y package in the Products directory, too. This will create a new editor_zope.js and overwrite the existing popups/fullscreen.html

    If you use an htmlarea version newer than 2.03, changes to these files might be necessary. In this case, you'd better save the htmlarea files and apply the necessary changes yourself; or drop me a note. I might be willing to update the Zope product when a new stable htmlarea version is released ;o)

  2. If you are a Zope developer and want to use the HtmlArea class, change your Product[s] like this:
            from Products.htmlarea import HtmlArea
            (...)
            class MyClass(HtmlArea.HtmlAreaMixin):
                (...)
    
         Otherwise you need to insert the proper links and scripts
         manually; this is described in the product's readme file.
    
  3. Restart Zope to let it recognise the new product.
