>From my prior faltering with global's and nsv, can I do something like this:
top of my .adp files:
<% [make_userid_global $conn] %
in utils.tcl
proc make_userid_global {conn} {
global userid
# get cookie, set userid, etc...
}
proc get_userid {} {
global userid
return $userid
}
then anywhere within that thread alone, I can access the global variable
userid or call get_userid in .adp files, right? Do new requests always get a
new thread?
