ah, this presentation is great! One question though, you say in
presentation that we should forget about unobtrusive javascript. Is it
that you consider it somehow harmfull or just not that important in
Seaside, and why?

as for addLoadScript, it seems to attach itself to body onLoad DOM
event. Am I correct that this will execute only after everything has
been downoloaded, including banners and such? In that case I would
rather use jQUery.ready() since it would provide much quicker and
reliable execution. But if you say it is off limits than I should
forget about it. Is there maybe some cheatsheet that would allow me to
use .ready safely with Seaside?

yes, but that also bounds to DOM onClick, instead of using
jQuery.click which might be argued to be more flexible (allows easy
attachment of several handlers), and to some extent normalizes
incompatibilities in browser event handlings.

Thanks a lot, to both of you!
