[Seaside] Updating a text input with comet

[Robert Sirois]

Seems to me you would be better off just evaluating some simple javascript for this. Comet is used to send information to users connected to the same pusher.. whereas this looks like a private sort of thing.

Look at jQuery ajax stuff for this... like (I'm typing this from memory):

html textInput
    on: #blah of: self;
    onChange: html jQuery ajax serializeThis;
    onBlur/Change: (html jQuery ajax script: [:s | s add: (html jQuery this attributeAt: #value put: self #blahFormatted)].

I seriously doubt that code would run... but you get the idea lol.
