[Seaside] Seaside 2.9 - how do I access session ivars? WARequestContextNotFound error

[Paul DeBruicker]

Hi

I set the ivar in a login method thats in a callback in a submitButton
in a component displayed in a jQuery lightbox.  In 2.8.4 I was using
the 'html lightbox:' method from SULibrary to create the lightbox.  I
basically copied the lightbox dialog example from the jQuery tests
included with the image and did a 'html render: loginComponent'
instead of listing the vegetables.


Thanks

Paul
