I have a widget that does almost exactly that. I haven't packaged it as
a separate widget yet, but I use it in my applications. You can look at
the source code of my CBlog app [1] to see it in use. Have a look at the
following files.
cblog/fflash.py
cblog/widgets/fancyflash.py
cblog/static/javascript/fancyflash.js
cblog/static/css/fancyflash.css
It also need the RUZEE.events JS library [2] packaged as a widget, which
can be found in the cblog/widgets/jslibs directory.
I works by encoding the flash message as JSON data and decoding it when
the page is rendered. To use it, you need to put the following in your
master template:
${tg_fancyflash(tg_flash)}
and then put the 'fancyflash' widget in tg.include_widgets, so that the
widget is present on every page. I use a function called
'register_sitewidgets' for that. It is defined in the file
cblog/widgets/base.py and called in cblog/controllers/__init__.py.
I hope I'll have the time to package fancyflash as a standalone widget
soon. If anybody wants to have a shot at it, feel free to do it, just
include me in the credits ;-) (and Splee, whose idea it was in the first
place)
