[Seaside] Rendering Callbacks during an Ajax callback

Hi Joachim,
I’m a bit confused why you are rendering in this way in your callback method.
Why are you doing this differently than in any other Seaside rendering method?
Since you are instantiating a new builder, it is going to create it’s own rendercontext, hence it’s own registry for callbacks.
I have not deeply investigated the result of your code snippet, but this seems to me why you are seeing that callback numbers are restarted.
Now, if you re-render list-item with a callback on it, Seaside will indeed need to register a new callback. The memory overhead should be limited to the registry dictionary entry and a WASeasideCallback instance, however, since the block and it’s lexical context object will already exist before rendering. So… I would not worry about memory overhead.
If you are doing this because you are doing hand-written ajax calls: what I tend to do is generate a jQuery-Seaside ajax callback and assign this to a Javascript variable, which I can use from the hand-written JS. Of course, there’s variations on this other than global-variable assignment but that’s all Javascript fiddling.
So, before I try to dig deeper in your problem: why is this method not called: "changeSomeStuffOnTheServerAndRedrawOn: html” :) ?
