how to generate session url's
 
|
Hi,
I have a photoflow Flash component ( http://facade.seasidehosting.st/ seaside/tests/facade ) that gets its information (name, picture url, target url, description) from a xml file. Could somebody explain how I can generate target url's with the seaside session information, so the url's point back to a specific page in my session ? Something like http://facade.seasidehosting.st/seaside/tests/facade? 6&_k=KeeQBcbe&_s=ToZbzxUcGyvkOyqZ ? I could then put these strings into the method below dat generates the xml file http://facade.seasidehosting.st/tests/ideeen.xml: renderContentOn: html self session returnResponse: (WAResponse new contentType: 'text/xml'; nextPutAll: '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <photos path="http://facade.seasidehosting.st/resources/"> <photo name="photo1" url="Linea1.png" link="http:// facade.seasidehosting.st/seaside/tests/product1">black picture</photo> <photo name="photo2" url="Linea2.png" link="http:// facade.seasidehosting.st/seaside/tests/product2">grey picture</photo> </photos>'; yourself) Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, I have searched all the archives and blogs for info but could not find an example. When I have the photoflow Flash component tamed I will release it for Squeak, maybe as an addition to Basil/SeaFlash. Thnx, Merik Voswinkel _______________________________________________ Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

Maybe you the implementation of WAAnchorTag helps here? This is probably the most prominent place where callback URLs are generated.

Thank you Lukas. However, it will take me many days before I can start to understand WAAnchorTag without documentation. I was expecting some part that constructs the _k and _s parts. > Maybe you the implementation of WAAnchorTag helps here?

The anchor only adds the callback (the number in the URL). The _s part is generated during the first request, when the session is instantiated. The _k part is generated for every request in the render-loop. The rendering context knows the current actionUrl. html context actionUrl Lukas -- Lukas Renggli http://www.lukas-renggli.ch _______________________________________________ Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

However I only half understand, because if I do |temp | temp := html context actionUrl. Transcript show: temp. temp gets the value http://localhost:9090/seaside/tests/facade? _k=CaSTUFvr&_s=hgCVUtnaTqnxvuqH and that url points to the component I put his code in (if I paste this url into my browser it reloads this component and of course prints out the exact same url on the Transcript again). But my problem is that I need to generate a url pointing to another component (the component that generates the xml data that is called SUTest1). So I tried lots of permutations to do that but I only get walkbalks: temp := html anchor callback: [SUTest2 new]. Transcript show: temp. What is the correct syntax to generate a url (with callback) to this component? Maybe I need more than the correct syntax? To recap: I have a component that needs to generate a xml file per user session (with urls pointing to several objects in the user session) and then generate a url with the same session info pointing to that xml, pass this xml url to an external Flash object. The Flash object fetches the xml file and inside it the Flash object finds the url's pointing to different seaside components inside the same user session. Preferably this all will work so that when I call this component it will start the Flash object that will call a different component and when that answers it will return to the first component like a normal callback: answer:.

FWIW, 2.7b1 has that method, 2.7a1 is behind and does not have it. If you are still on 2.7, you should use 2.7b1 rather than 2.7a1.

I am confused. I am on Seaside 2.8a1-lr.428 in a 3.10 beta image from damien.cassou.free.fr/ There was no urlForAction: in WARenderingContext so I added it as Ramon suggested. The next message #context is also not implemented in WARenderingContext so it does not help: Stack Trace thisContext WARenderingContext(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #context self a WARenderingContext aMessage context Merik _______________________________________________ Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

Bingo! That is it, that is how you generate a session url pointing to the any component (here SUtest2) in Seaside 2.8 into the html page. And for newbies like me: temp := html urlForAction: [self call: SUTest2 new] is how you put the value into a variable and not into the html page. Thank you all for helping me out here! Now I have to figure out why I could not solve this myself. Do you all have superior insight in how Seaside works, are you better at browsing (and finding!) examples and then rewriting them, is the problem that we do not have enough Seaside documentation for a programmer of my skill level, etc ? To answer this question I have volunteered to help maintain the FAQ, hoping to find out how to flatten the learning curve on Seaside.

This is how I did it: - I was pretty sure #urlForAction: was in there (I remember it was added after some issues) - open 'Message Names' - enter urlForAction: -> done Cheers Philippe > To answer this question I have volunteered to help maintain the FAQ, hoping > to find out how to flatten the learning curve on Seaside. > > Much obliged to uou all, > > Merik Voswinkel > _______________________________________________ > Seaside mailing list > [hidden email] > http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside > > Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |
is there url encoding in Seaside or Squeak?

In reply to this post by Philippe Marschall
Hello listmembers,
I have a string that I need to 'url encode' as specified in RFC 1738 (see http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt ) Does anybody know of an existing method that already does that? There is code in WAUrlEncoder and WAUrl but if I am correct that has nothing to do with 'url encoding' as meant in RFC 1738. Maybe there is some code that does a simple parse of a string and replaces it with values from a table that I can use as a model? An example of url encoding: The url: 'xmlPath=http://localhost:9090/seaside/tests/facade? 24&_k=QfTdFUeY&_s=FSxTGyuBNcNckyjq' can be encoded as: 'xmlPath%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A9090%2Fseaside %2Ftests%2Ffacade%3F24%26%5Fk%3DQfTdFUeY%26%5Fs%3DFSxTGyuBNcNckyjq' For more info on url encoding see: The table for encoding: http://i-technica.com/whitestuff/urlencodechart.html A tool for encoding: http://www.dommermuth-1.com/protosite/experiments/encode/index.html FlashVars explanation: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do? externalId=tn_16417&sliceId=1 Adobes explanation of url encoding: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do? externalId=tn_14143&sliceId=2 Merik Voswinkel _______________________________________________ Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

> bad, > sorry Merik. How polite! No need to apologise. You allready made my week with helping me out at all! Since 12 weeks I make a living writing Seaside websites. I was stuck with this session problem for 6 weeks, which means I was losing money fast. As a way to thank you all for the help I get, I of course will put all my work back into Seaside and Pier and started maintainig the FAQ. But still, I hope that one day, when I succeed in earning a living this way, I can offer to pay for advice like Lukas, Philippe, you and many others are giving on the list. Not today I am afraid, but one day. Thanks again, Merik Voswinkel _______________________________________________ Seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |
