Hello all,
I appear to have file uploads working, and am now trying to make it meaningful. The flow is something like the following: * anchor/button starts upload process * user saves a file locally, then invokes the upload form * user includes text for a BibTeX entry in a separate field * the system proposes an altered entry with additional fields and lets the user preview/edit it. * user finally accepts/saves the result into the server's copy of the data (articles and BibTeX database). I have probably used too many components, but my question surrounds "the" upload component. There is a need to loop until things are correct, and I am wondering whether I should use one component with conditionally-rendered sub-components (e.g., once a file has been uploaded, stop asking for it), or if I should use another component class(es) for the subsequent steps? I hope that's clear to you - I'm not sure I understand it :) Bill Wilhelm K.

Hi Bill,
I didn't get your example but I don't see why rendering subcomponents conditioned to model state could be a problem. Do you? cheers, Sebastian > -----Mensaje original----- > De: [hidden email] > [mailto:[hidden email]] En nombre > de Bill Schwab > Enviado el: Miercoles, 09 de Julio de 2008 18:45 > Para: [hidden email] > Asunto: [Seaside] Design question > > Hello all, > > I appear to have file uploads working, and am now trying to make it > meaningful.
