%myvars; ]> by Joel Aufrecht As a workaround for missing content-repository functionality, copy a provided file into the directory for tcl files: cp /var/lib/aolserver/service1/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/note-procs.tcl /var/lib/aolserver/service1/packages/myfirstpackage/tcl/ To make this file take effect, go to the APM and choose "Reload all files" for "MyFirstPackage". Each user-visible page in your package has, typically, three parts. The tcl file holds the procedural logic for the page, including TCL and database-independent SQL code, and does things like check permissions, invoke the database queries, and modify variables, and the adp page holds html. The -postgres.xql and -oracle.xql files contains database-specific SQL. The default page in any directory is index, so we'll build that first, starting with the tcl file: [service0 postgresql]$ cd /var/lib/aolserver/service0/myfirstpackages/www [service0@yourserver www emacs index.tcl Paste this into the file. ad_page_contract { This is the main page for the package. It displays all of the Notes and provides links to edit them and to create new Notes. @author Your Name (you@example.com) @cvs-id $Id: tutorial-pages.xml,v 1.5.2.3 2003/12/15 14:18:48 jeffd Exp $ } set page_title [ad_conn instance_name] set context [list] template::list::create \ -name notes \ -multirow notes \ -actions { "Add a Note" note-edit} \ -elements { edit { link_url_col edit_url display_template { <img src="/resources/acs-subsite/Edit16.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0"> } sub_class narrow } title { label "Title" } delete { link_url_col delete_url display_template { <img src="/resources/acs-subsite/Delete16.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0"> } sub_class narrow } } db_multirow \ -extend { edit_url delete_url } notes notes_select { select ci.item_id, n.title from cr_items ci, mfp_notesx n where n.revision_id = ci.live_revision } { set edit_url [export_vars -base "note-edit" {item_id}] set delete_url [export_vars -base "note-delete" {item_id}] } Now index.adp: <master> <property name="title">@page_title;noquote@</property> <property name="context">@context;noquote@</property> <listtemplate name="notes"></listtemplate> Now we create the add/edit page. If note_id is passed in, it edits that note. Otherwise, it presents a form for adding notes. Edit note-edit.tcl: ad_page_contract { This is the main page for the package.
