I don't quite understand gthe behaviour that is causing infinite loop in

method renderContentOn while executing the line that renders tabs by message to
renderTabsOn.
The renderTabsOn seems to send message to renderContentOn causing an infinite
loop.

The code is in the

I have placed the code in a pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu.com/555007/

I don't see a way in this session to attach a file.

Maybe the send of renderTabsOn: should be in a block, not parantheses

Yes, good catch. "(self renderTabsOn: html)" returns self, which means
that "html div id: 'tabs'; with: (self renderTabsOn: html)" is causing
the creation of a div containing self (which obviously recurses
infinitely).

That is a great catch - I wish that there was a visual distinction between
parenthesis and braquets.

Thanks for the explanation. As to parens return self, I don't quite understand.

This fixes the problem and I get an ugly set of tabs - which should be fixable
via CSS.

I had to stop the server before it took the change.

Thanks again

The pharo source pane editor on ubuntu linux is simply very difficult to use; it
is difficult to distinguish punctuations like ':', or '.' or to distinguish '('
from '['. It is quite terrible.

I took the source and pasted it into VIM with 'smalltalk' syntax colloring; much
better.

I'm guessing that Slime would catch that...

It's because the render method does not return anything. In Smalltalk, if there is nothing explicitly returned by a method, the method implicitly returns self, always.

This fixes the problem and I get an ugly set of tabs - which should be fixable

via CSS.

I would interject here that the JQuery tabs are what sold me on using JQuery. Include a theme and all the CSS is included free of charge :)

Perhaps selecting a different font for code panes would help.

Cheers,

jQuery version of tabs is in my queue; thanks

I was just following a blog in http://smalltalk.cat by Bernat Romagosa Carrasquer
from which I took the code. When I entered the code I messed up and used parens
instead of brackets.

I need to understand the use of parens and blocks better.

Changing font size for 'code' to 12 helps, but DejaVu is not a good font.

Re: I don't quite understand gthe behaviour that is causing infinite loop in

Just a little detail, http://smalltalk.cat is not my blog, it's the official website of the Catalan Smalltalk users group, I just wrote an entry in it a while ago.

Be careful because the post you're following may be a bit outdated, seaside has changed quite a bit since I wrote it...

Oh, and my blog is in www.asmalltalkbytheseaside.com ;)

Cheers!

Re: I don't quite understand gthe behaviour that is causing infinite loop in

Yes indeed there were many changes to make it work for 3.0. That is one the major

flaws of the Seaside ecosystem. It changes constantly without update of the

documentation and examples.

Thanks for the blog address and for the code.

P.S. I enjoy reading catalan - it is close enough to French and Spanish and if

you architect software as you architect building, we will be in for a grea ride.
