[4:06] <midnightmonste1> how can I access the baseURI from within my app?
[4:07] <midnightmonste1> nm, app.properties.baseURI
[13:37] <midnightmonster> wiped out xp and installed ubuntu on the laptop. boy, it's a lot easier to get dev stuff working.
[13:38] <midnightmonster> just built helma
[13:38] <midnightmonster> practically as easy as downloading the prebuilt one
[13:38] <zumbrunn> yep :-)
[13:39] <midnightmonster> plus my wireless doesn't freak out every few minutes, so a big thumbs up for ubuntu
[13:42] <midnightmonster> I think I'm going to have to learn git.
[13:42] <midnightmonster> which hopefully won't be as daunting as it seems
[20:54] * zumbrunn just uploaded new openmocha and jhino packages
[20:54] <zumbrunn> http://code.google.com/p/e4xd/downloads/list
[20:55] <zumbrunn> they now contain some basic fetchlet support, including a small example
[20:56] <zumbrunn> "fetchlets" being server-side functions that can be invoked on the client-side
[21:12] <bard> via xhr?
[21:39] <zumbrunn> bard: not sure yet
[21:40] <zumbrunn> probably both at the end
[21:40] <zumbrunn> currently I'm using just script insertion
[21:42] <zumbrunn> (in other words, the server-side function can then respond with a script that is sent back to the client)
[21:45] <bard> ah ok, so the way to call the fetchlet is by having <script src="/path/to/fetchlet"/> in the page?
[21:46] <zumbrunn> the framework takes care of that...
[21:46] <bard> ok
[21:47] <zumbrunn> if you define a foo.fetchlet on the server side, it's callable on the client-side as foo()
[21:47] * bard is debugging template engine, so tends to be in lowlevel frame of mind :-)
[21:47] <zumbrunn> (but runs on the server-side)
[21:48] <zumbrunn> you've seen jstal, right?
[21:48] <zumbrunn> it was mentioned here while you were not in the channel
[21:49] <bard> haven't seen it, *googles*
[21:49] <zumbrunn> http://code.google.com/p/jstal/w/list
[21:49] <zumbrunn> ehhm... http://code.google.com/p/jstal/
[21:51] <zumbrunn> http://helma.zumbrunn.com/hopbot/2008-01-26
[21:51] <zumbrunn> http://helma.zumbrunn.com/hopbot/2008-01-27
[21:58] <bard> seen. nice, maybe just a tad on the complex side for me
[22:24] <bard> hmm, the repeat="iter_var_name collection_name" thing looks nice
[22:24] * bard prepares to steal
