Seaside with no ports
by Derek Brans 07 Aug '03

07 Aug '03

Is it possible to run Seaside with apache without any access to any ports? Is that what mod_lisp is for? Thank you. Derek Brans Nerd on a Wire Web design that's anything but square http://www.nerdonawire.com mailto: brans(a)nerdonawire.com phone: 604.874.6463 toll-free: 1-877-NERD-ON-A-WIRE

I was wondering what's the best place to put global data (as user prefs), in the session component or in the entry point class? -- Ragnar Hojland - Project Manager Linalco "Specialists in Linux and Free Software" http://www.linalco.com Tel: +34-91-5970074 Fax: +34-91-5970083

Re: [Seaside] ASSISTANCE PLEASE.

Well, Hobert, I think the problem you're having is that Seaside is a web framework and not really designed to support ACID transactions, you might want to look at one of the Object-Relational mappings. Avi's work on Roe is very interesting.... Oh. It's late. I'm silly. Tim

ASSISTANCE PLEASE.

Dear friend, You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. I am the first Son of the most popular black farmer in Zimbabwe who was murdered in the land dispute in my country. I got your contact through network online hence decided to write you. Before the death of my father, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of US$30 Million (thirty million United States dollars), in one of the private security company, as he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe. This money was deposited in a box as gem stones to avoid much demurrage from Security Company. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr. Robert Mugabe, introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black farmers, and this resulted to the killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact a lot of people were killed because of this Land reform Act for which my father was one of the victims. it is against this background that I and my family fled Zimbabwe to South Africa for fear of our lives. After which, I traveled to the Netherlands and I am currently staying in the Netherlands where i am seeking political asylum and more so have decided to transfer my father's money to a more reliable foreign account. Since the law of Europe prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of European Union. As the eldest child of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking everything we have got. The South African government seems to be playing along with them. I am faced with the dilemma of moving this amount of money out of South Africa for fear of going through the same experience in future. Both countries have similar political history. I am seeking for a partner who I have to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I want you to do for me, is to make arrangements with the security company to clear the Consignment (funds) from their affiliate office here in the Netherlands as i have already given directives for the consignment to be brought to the Netherlands from South Africa. But before then all modalities will have to be put in place like change of ownership to the consignment. I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account for this transaction. Or you can go into partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. I have also mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses incurred in the process of this transaction. If you do prefer a partnership, I am willing to give you 20% of the money while the remaining 75% will be for my investment in your country. Contact with my email- (hobertmula2000(a)netscape.net) while I implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction. Thanks, GOD BLESS YOU Best regards, HOBERT MULA. NOTE: ON YOUR INABILITY TO HANDLE THIS TRANSACTION RESPOND TO ME AND INFORM ME SO I CAN LOOK FOR SOMEONE ELSE.

Re: [Seaside] Disable a submit button

It might be the seaside way to solve that problem, but what if the user doubleclicks the submit button ?

Disable a submit button
by Nevin Pratt 24 Jul '03

24 Jul '03

I need to use Javascript to disable the submit button after it has been clicked. But, as I understand it, the Javascript that does this would need to know the button name, and the button name is dynamically assigned by Seaside. What is happening on my Checkout page is, after hitting the Payment Submit button, the user is occasionally hitting the "Back" button on the browser, then looking at stuff, then hitting the "Forward" button, and then clicking the Payment Submit button again. This is resulting in multiple charges (I'm manually correcting them for now, so the customer doesn't see this error). So, I need to disable the Payment button once it has been clicked (and *without* the page having to be re-rendered or reloaded). Anybody know how to do that?

I've been using old versions of seaside but if you could add some javascript code to the html button to get like this: <input type="Submit" value="Do something" onclick="this.disabled=true;return true"> ... could work.

Interaction with non-Seaside site
by Derek Brans 22 Jul '03

22 Jul '03

Avi and Julian, Suppose your Seaside site user interaction goes something like this: 1. Choose your product 2. Pay 3. Process the sale Now suppose you want step 2 (Pay) to take place on Verisign's site. It would be nice if I could model this using the component call: mechanism already in place. eg, I would call WAPaymentStep which would forward the user to the Verisign site and answer a PaymentResponse upon "returning" from Verisign's site. There are two parts to this problem: 1. Sending them to the payment site and 2. receiving them back to Seaside after payment. 1. This part is easy: WAPaymentStep presents a form to the user that upon submission posts the necessary variables to the payment site. 2. This is the hard part. Here's my plan so far... WAPaymentStep needs to register a callback that would a) process the POST from Verisign site (their response) and create a PaymentResponse object b) return the Payment Response using #answer:. What I would like is: Example code on how to register an arbitrary callback block. Does such a callback have access to POST variables? If not, can you suggest another way to get posted variables into a smalltalk object which gets "returned" using #answer: ? I can imagine another Seaside service called "VerisignService" who's job it is to accept responses from Verisign and leave an appropriate PaymentResponse in a "mailbox" to be picked up by WAPaymentStep. VerisignService then calls some continuation to "wake up" the WAPaymentStep, which "checks its mail" and returns the PaymentResponse using #answer: . Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

Form field validation and polite error reporting
by Ken Causey 21 Jul '03

21 Jul '03

I'm really just getting started with Seaside and I'm struggling to figure out how to handle "nice" field validation error reporting. My definition of nice is to return the form to the user just as she filled it out with one or more error messages and possibly the bad fields marked. I figured I could throw Errors or some sort of Exception from the appropriate setter method. However I can't figure out how to catch the error and provide the appropriate response. All assistance appreciated, Ken Causey
