I would like to program a reporting tool. Seaside seems great to handle all the web stuff, but I'll need charting and exporting to xls and pdf. What are the options to achieve this wiht Squeak? It would be much better with VW?
Hi Tomas,
I typically export to Excel via CSV. I don't know what your needs are in that regard, but it has worked well for me.
As for PDF, my favorite choice is Cairo. VisualWorks has a very good Cairo binding. I'm not aware of any current Cairo work being done in Squeak. I run Seaside in VisualWorks.

There is some work being done on Cairo in Squeak: Rome.
Dear Seasiders, I have a similar issue. I am making a Webapplication on SqueakSeaside. It has to do with users uploading their contents in the form of a list. Presently I have a Component, in which user can enter item one by one. If the user has to enter a large number of items, how can that be done.
One solution is from a Excel file. Can someone throw more light on how exactly this is going to work and how exactly CSV works.
Thanks and Regards, Rajeev

DabbleDB uses copy and paste from an excel file. One selects the cells in the worksheet, copies them, then pastes that into a textarea at DabbleDB. You can see it working in their demo video: http://dabbledb.com/explore/7minutedemo/
Thanks for the direction. I am sort of working on textArea now. I have rendered a textArea and the input entered by the user is saved in an instance variable bulk. As of now, I am concentrating on users entering the contents separated by comas.
html textArea value: self bulk;
callback: [:value | self bulk: value].
html submitButton callback: [self addBulk]; text: 'Add Bulk'.
When I hit "Add Bulk" Button, the contents which are separated by comas, should be added as individual items to a List.(I have a method which adds individual items).
But I am stuck at the point as to how to convert textArea contents separated by comas to individual items.
Help needed.
Regards, Rajeev

Are there no bindings from excel to smalltalk? I know Perl has that on CPAN for reference.
