[Zope] Problems with ZPhoto, ZPhotoAlbum, and ZAlbumPage

[Steve Spicklemire]

Hi Dave,

   Add a 'defined_views' property to the photo album. Make it a 'tokens'
property with values 'explore fancy simple'. This will get you closer!

    Dave> 1) Install all the packages 2) Import ZPhotoAlbum via the

    Dave> Tinkering, I found the 'Restore DTML' button up on the

    Dave> So I click that, and get a lot more content in the folder in
    Dave> the management screen.

    Dave> Now when I go to url.url.com/abc/, I see my index, the
    Dave> AlbumPage, and the ZPhoto that I added.

    Dave> Here's where the problem happens.  There are 2 buttons at
    Dave> the bottom of the page called 'fancy view' and 'explore
    Dave> view'.  They should allow different views of the indexes.
    Dave> But when I click on one, I get:
