Johnie,
If you have a problem with lift, or are finding something lift-related
difficult to understand, by all means raise it on this list and there
is a good chance if its a problem with lift we'll do something about
it, pronto. However, if you have a problem with the way I construct
sentences
Scala's XML support is based in immutable objects meaning that you can
not change them but rather generate new structures.
Lift is very flexible and allows you to apply your own xhtml
transformation right before the response is sent down to client.

There are two main approaches to this, both of which are covered in the Lift

This lets you use the same snippet class instance, so any member variables

Actually, you're not calling stateful snippets, you're calling a Json

It looks like Jetty is restarting your application. This can cause issues
with java.util.concurrent schedulers. Try setting the from

I see that StatefulSnippet extends DispatchSnippet. I understand what
DispatchSnippet is about. But what is the reason that a
StatefulSnippet must also be a DispatchSnippet? Aren't these concepts
(stateful vs. stateless, dispatch vs. reflection) unrelated?
It's better practice to use DispatchSnippets. Snippets by convention are
the easy toe in the water, but once you're dealing with state, etc., you
should be graduating to declaring the methods that your snippets support,
thus enforcing the DispatchSnippet being the base class of StatefulSnippet.
Ah, that's interesting (I haven't used Wicket). The reason that the link
function executes in the scope of its definition is that it's a closure, so
it captures its scope. In general, closures are the foundation for a lot
of Lift functionality. The same mechanism is what makes ajax and comet so
The BigDecimal value of a MappedDecimal field is Scala's BigDecimal, which
