But from the book I understood that if you want functions ( controllers) with
parameters,
you have to use services.
Am I wrong ?
The application looks like the web2py book application,
but differs in a number of ways,
- it's larger on the top side, i.e. it consists of a number of books (up to 10),
- it's divided into more detail, not a whole chapter is shown, but just one
paragraph
- pages can contains forms, where the user must give answers
- there should be a communication channel beside the book ( not realized yet)
The current example, although not completely filled with real information,
contains 6 books, each with about 20 chapters, each chapter has between 5 and
25 paragraphs.
The controls on page ( mostly jquery menus), and the links embedded in the
content,
determine which is the next page to shown control.
So each of these controls or links, determine book, chapter, paragraph,
and they all go to a relative simple function, that extracts the pages from a
database
(at the moment the texts (and some layout information) are read from a python
file, where the texts
are placed in a nested list structure)
and shows the pages in an uniform way.
What's the better way to solve this ?
(btw is the web2py book application already available ?, couldn't wait ;-) )
thanks again,
Stef
