Boy, you know how to make friends and influence developers don't you? For the record, as long as it's impossible to render rhtml partials from a HAMLized view, then I'm very much inclined to roll back the experiment of HAMLizing our various themes in favour of simply supporting people who want to write HAML partials for things like sidebars. As a heads up, I'm also thinking about rejigging the sidebar/plugin architecture and basing it on an event (possibly mixed with DOM callbacks) driven system. So a comment gatekeeper plugin would register itself as interested in post filtering .comment-box to add a "type the results of multiplying three by 10 here" type challenge and as a before handler for Article::Controller#comment to check for the presence of the correct captcha Textfilters would work in similar fashion, with 'post' filters registering to manipulate either the whole chunk of formatted text, or simply specific DOM/XPath entities. Ideally they'd receive a DOM object rather than simple text, but that's dependent on an appropriately lightweight parser being available. The idea here is that most plugins would be operating in controller/helper space, which means they'd have access to routing and other helper type tools, and that means we could remove a bunch of routing type stuff that's currently in the models because the textfilters need them, and that would be good. I really dislike duplicating whole chunks of stuff that Rails could/should be doing for us. NB, this is currently very sketchy and should not be, in any way, taken to be a promise or anything more than a back of an envelope design sketch. Filters, sidebars and other plugins have been bugging me for a while, there has to be a Better Way, but I'm not entirely sure what that is yet. -- Piers Cawley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.bofh.org.uk/ _______________________________________________ Typo-list mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/typo-list
