Solved the problem. You give every function a uuid. I spend last night and wrote my own module based off of yours.
Here is the lastest version of the code: http://pastebin.com/m570fe50a It is a bit more involved to set up than your clienttools, however it uses polymorphism and interfaces (I never thought I would say that outside of college haha). Obviously, this allows scripts to extend other scripts, to provide more functionality. This also allows scripts, to call other scripts, either by their function name (if they are a function) or by including their xml representation directly. Every script can be assigned a UUID, which allows you for multiple events on the same object. Every Script objects have the def xml(): so that they can be called directly from the template without the need for a manager class, so that they can be returned from ajax. Scripts can also have global javascript variables, based off their name and assigned uuid. For example, a Timer() will create a javascript variable such as "interval_uuid_timerid", this allows for the timer to be accessed by a StopTimer() script, so that it can stop the timer, even from ajax, without having to write any javascript :) -Thadeus On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 6:07 PM, mr.freeze <nat...@freezable.com> wrote: > > Not sure if it's a best practice, but you could do a separate client > handler and server handler to get a Please Wait effect: > > d = DIV("Click Me",_id="clickme") > event.listen("click", d, "jQuery('#clickme').html('Please Wait...');") > event.listen("click",d, handle_it, d) > > def handle_it(): > return "Done!" > > > On Sep 23, 5:37 pm, Thadeus Burgess <thadeus.burg...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Yes it would. > > > > But would you ever place the same event on two different callbacks? > > > > -Thadeus > > > > On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 12:18 PM, mr.freeze <nat...@freezable.com> > wrote: > > > > > I get it now.
