[Seaside] Submitting forms using Ajax

[Stevie Bornschein]

Hi Sebastian,

thanks for replying so fast. Sadly I’m not so versed in SeaSide yet—could
you explain further? I already tried to use the triggerForm message, but I
don’t exactly know what to do in order to submit the form eventually.

Many thanks,
Stevie
