[Seaside] Registration e-mail verification

[Boris Popov]

Dave,

It sounds like you're thinking about generating a URL to a callback that
will activate an account, but a safer thing to do would be to disconnect
the email from your session by doing something like,

1. On account store unique activation key
2. On your root component implement

initialRequest: aRequest
 super initialRequest: aRequest.
 aRequest
  at: 'activate'
  ifPresent: [:acc |
      aRequest
       at: 'with'
       ifPresent: [:key | "activate acc with key"].

3. Then email URLs of form,

http://www.myapp.com/online?activate=1234&with=567890

Hope this helps,

-Boris
