Today's Work
This morning I ran the alias script and fixed the problems that it found in the Center website. I also forwarded the list of broken links it generated to Anne. After that I added the Center site to the list of sites that sitecheck checks. I also finished coding and testing the template_dictionary template_render packages in my new html template code.
I will be on vacation this afternoon, tomorrow, and all of next week. I will return to work on September 9th.

This morning was spent in meetings over the reorganization of what is now the Center. This afternoon I found and fixed a permissions problem in the list method and fixed some relative urls in the center web site that should have been absolute urls.

Most of the day was spent moving various parts of the Center site to Production and making sure they worked properly. I also found a bug in the localNews method, fixed it, and moved it to test.

Today's Work
I spent most of the day writing and rewriting viewable, the zope python script to detrmine if a web page is viewable by a user. I had the bright iad of using three return values instead of two: 0 means the page is not viewable, 1 means that it is viewable by everyone and 2 means the page is viewable by the user but not everyone else. The last value allows the script to be used to enclose a link in parentheses, as we do on the current site. The reason fron the rewrite is that I was assuming the value of audience comes from the document metadata, when it should actually come from the navigation items table. While trying to test my script, I ran into some problems with STObjects that I was not able to solve.
My script alias.pl ran to completion, giving me some intersting information about the site. But I haven't had the time to do anything further about it.
A List Apart has an interesting article on putting proper quotes and dashes on a web page. (Not the Microsoft proprietary way.)

This morning I did the modification of alias.pl that I threatened yesterday. The scipt now groups all urls that point at the same page together. In the afternoon I wrote a python script version of isViewable called viewable.py. It is intended to replace some logic in the current Navigation method. I'm trying to figure out a way to test it without taking down the entire site.
