Hi Josh,
Do you really need to open multiple windows?
If not, the following code works well.
class Bummer < Shoes
url "/", :index
url "/cleveland", :cleveland
url "/neverland", :neverland
def index
para link("go to cleveland", :click => "/cleveland")
end
def cleveland
#window :title => "cleveland" do
para link("go to neverland", :click => "/neverland")
#end
#visit "/"
end
def neverland
para "cherries, syrup, puppies"
end
end
Shoes.app :title => "bummer"
But if you need to open multiple windows and send some messages between
them, the following sample might be of help.
