navigation and snippet vars

[Andrzej Skalski]

Hi,

while working on my app, I used to used to write things like this (scenario is some Record):

object ScenarioEditSnippet extends Loggable {

  object varScenarioToEdit extends SessionVar[Box[AScenario]](Empty)

  def getBodyFor(scen : AScenario) : NodeSeq = {
    <ul>
      {
        scen.getContentsIds.map(x => <li>{x.toString}</li>) toSeq
      }
    </ul>

  }

  def getBody : NodeSeq = {
    varScenarioToEdit.get match {
      case Full(scen) => getBodyFor(scen)
      case _ => <div> no stuff </div>
    }
  }

  def render = {
    "#putBodyHere" #> getBody
  }
}

there is usually a site "edit_scenario.html" that contains this snippet, and I navigate to it with "ajaxButton" setting the var.

I am wondering if this is a good way to do it? Or what is the preffered way to pass arguments to snippets on sub-pages? Via S.param ?

This way is fine, nothing wrong with it
