Agoric Source is proud to introduce the new website of Ten Thousand Villages Houston, a non-profit store and outreach program, located in the Rice Village, Houston.
Plone in the Afternoon
The default time display for Plone events is 24 hour time. Fine for the military, but "the clocks struck thirteen" never sounded right to my ears. So, I searched for a simple way to convert the time display to AM/PM time. However, Google failed to easily find me a solution. So, I investigated my own.
From HTML to Excel
One of our projects makes extensive use of web-based reports. Our customer, however, often prefers to extract these reports to Excel, for further analysis or manipulation. This is easy with Internet Explorer, as there's a right-click option "Export to Excel", which handily takes anything on a web page, especially a table, and automatically formats and imports it into a spreadsheet. Except for formatting. Our customer has been troubled with leading zeros in account numbers (a lot of these being General Ledger reports), and Excel stubbornly insists on treating these as numbers, and thus dropping the leading zero. We needed to find a way to give a hint to Excel, to tell it to treat this data as text, not numbers.
An Untranslated Items portlet for Plone
In conjunction with my recent experiments with I18N and Plone, I've also developed a helpful portlet for identifying "untranslated" documents. This script provides a simple guide for any translators in your content management workflow to identify new documents to translate. I'd prefer calling this portlet a recipe, not a complete product -- you'll likely have to modify it for your specific needs.
