After some thought I have a better description of what I am trying to do: - I would like to have a stateless page that is always accessed via a bookmarkable link. - This page has an iframe whose content is backed by a stateful page that is altered via ajax links. - When the parent page is refreshed via the bookmarkable link I would like the state in the iframe to persist (eg the iframe content is rendered exactly as it was left before the refresh).
The question boils down to how to generate a link to the stateful page that always points to the latest version of the page. The link can change from render to render as long as the link can be generated statelessly (because the containing page is stateless). In case anyone is curious the real use case is a dynamically generated javascript file that writes the iframe and other features into any host page (similar to getsatisfaction.com or nabble.com). Any hints on how to go about this are appreciated.
