[8:16] <hannesw> has anybody looked at the new skin/macro features in helma ng?
[8:16] <hannesw> if anybody is interested, I could give a quick summary.
[8:24] <hannesw> looking at sinatra url routing: http://www.sinatrarb.com/book.html#routes
[8:24] <hannesw> some nice things in there
[8:24] <hannesw> for one thing, i wonder if we should do routing by HTTP method.
[8:51] <simono> i'll checkout new skin/macro features after noon
[9:28] <simono> aha! further proof that merging post/get into data is evil http://dev.helma.org/trac/helma/changeset/9671
[13:09] <hannesw> simono: in the case of a rhino continuation, handling get and post requests in the same action is actually a requirement...
[13:10] <hannesw> but it's a corner case.
[13:11] <hannesw> Recently, I'm wondering if jetty continuations aka asynchronous request handling isn't going to be the more important technique.
[13:11] <hannesw> (it doesn't really solve the same problem as rhino continuations...)
[13:12] <simono> i see. i thought that in the continuation example all the params are GET
[13:13] <simono> i posted my don't-merge-POST/GET on the wikipage anyways
[13:14] <simono> "handling get and post request in the same action" .. thats not what i meant. i just don't like that they are merged into res.data
[13:16] <simono> i would force people to think about wether POST or GET is appropriate
[13:42] <hannesw> simono: I agree!
[13:43] <simono> it's a minor issue, i just saw lots of res.data in this commit
[14:01] <simono> skin extending works the same for helma1 & ng? i want to try it, found only the changeset-docu
[14:39] <hannesw> simono: what commit contains res.data?
[14:39] <hannesw> skin extending is different in helma 1 and ng
[14:40] <hannesw> helma 1 uses <% .extends foo %>, helma ng without the dot.
[14:40] <simono> i see
[15:21] <fresco> are there any examples around of fetching remote html pages from within a Helma NG app? adding env.js and jquery would be a bonus...
