David,
Since I am really interested in view/logic separation, I focused on
sections 1.5 and 1.6. My overall feedback is that I really like
starting with the example and following up with the philosophy. Also,
you accomplished the goal of telling the reader how the separation is
accomplished as well as where the 'guard rails' are to enforcing a
proper separation. Finally, having attended the lift workshop and
trying to puzzle thru the ToDo example afterwards, I am thankful for
this document so that I can gain a proper understanding of what is
going on.
In section 1.5, you describe the snippet lookup mechanism. There is a
sentence which I don't understand:
Lift will convert underscore separated names to
CamelCase names when it looks up classes.
I am having trouble understanding which underscores you are referring
to.
In section 1.6 there is a code snippet which looks like:
<td><f:year>
<select><option>2007</option></select>
</f:year></td>
The year snippet replaces the <select /> above with a <select>
generated from the snippet code. If I want the HTML designer to be
able to style the above select with css code, what is the guideline?
Should the select above have a class attribute? Also, if I want my
view to be testable, should I include an id attribute as well?
I really enjoyed the example and will dive in further as time permits.
Thanks.
Dano
