I have a fairly typical design of page for this environment:
List of existing items
Form to add a new item
When I submit my form, I get my flash saying that item has been added
(& indeed db is updated correctly), however I don't get the list of
items refreshed....so users will be uncertain.
I can do a redirect to re-load the page, but then I don't get the
flash coming through.
I /could/ write a bunch of Javascript to get the list part refreshed
within the page, but a simpler-seeming way would be to add a meta-
refresh tag to get the page to refresh after the flash has been seen.
In the header section of the layout, add:
{{if response.refresh:}}{{=refresh}}{{pass}}
In the form.accepts, add:
response.refresh='<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2; url=' + URL
(r=request,f='application') +'">'
(application would be the same as the one you've just left, but want
this to avoid the page continually reloading - just want that once)
However response.refresh isn't supported & I can't see where to extend
gluon to get it supported.
It seems generically useful enough to go into core anyway, right?
