Michel,

I tried doing this with my latest Seaside (2.6a2.133.0) and got the 
following exceptions during parcel load:

"Unhandled exception: The variable name "document" is overloaded for 
Seaside.WAStaticHtmlCanvas"

If I tell it to proceed, I end up with a non-working Seaside.. I get 
exceptions (message not understood: #asMIMEDocument") if I try to load 
any Seaside pages (including the config page). The version that came 
with my VW7.4 is version 2.5b8 of the SeasideWebDesignerTool.. Is there 
a newer one available?

Thanks!
