Thanks Howard. I figured I didn't need it on the currentMessage field, but I didn't want the flex response from someone saying I should try adding it. ;-)
Either way, the "messages" field is still sticking around past a single page load. The pertinent java code that uses it is: @Component private Messages messages; Object onActionFromDownloadDistrict(String districtId) { messages.addMessage("Last successful download: District " + districtId); return null; } And of course the html: <t:messages/> Anything else I'm missing? Is flash persistence available in 5.0.4? -----Original Message----- From: Howard Lewis Ship [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2007 1:48 PM To: Tapestry users Subject: Re: T5: Flash persistence strategy You don't need the @Meta, you can: @Persist("flash") private List<String> messages = new ArrayList<String>(); Also, you don't need the @Persist on the currentMessage field.
