Hi Josh, You will find all the information concerning @Persist annotation here (which stores data in the session) :
http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5.2-dev/guide/persist.html and here about onActivate / onPasivate : http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5.2-dev/guide/pagenav.html<%20http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5.2-dev/guide/pagenav.html> And finally, I strongly recommend you to read this article to. You might had already read it, but I strongly recommend to you to read it carefully again : http://www.infoq.com/articles/tapestry5-intro No offences, but even if you might think that Tapestry documentation is not good, I'm under the impression you don't search enough on it. Most of the questions can be answered just reading the documentation, google, the blogs I told you (Igor, Howard, Christophe+Robin), or just google, and jumpstart. I understand this list is very useful, but please, search a little more by yourself. You will figure out better where the documentation is, and where to find the answers. As I said, no offences.
