[Seaside] Re: Problems with expire in Seaside

[Andreas Nilsson]

 From what i've understood by reading what Avi has said on the subject i 
think it's supposed to work something like this:

- When you start your session and the user has entered his/her 
information you create a new Forwarder object containing the 
information that you wan't to preserve between sessions and call a 
method on your session to register the forwarder object.
- When the session expires, your forwarder will get the control instead 
of the normal expire-screen and you can then show a message and/or 
transfer control to your login-screen and pass along the information 
stored in the forwarder.

I might be wrong, though.
