Well, packages marked 'developing' *are* stable, reasonably. Any changes should just extend the existing functionality without breaking compatibility with what's there today. The shale.view package in particular, which provides the features I cited below, should be pretty solid at this point.

hey Laurie,

I browsed the shale package details etc and all the functionality was either
devlopoing or evolving in terms of stability ratings. are there any stable
alternatives ?

Thanx

Greetings,

Is there any way to determine whether a page has been refresehed ? Is
there
some object in the request Map or something to indicate that the page
has
been refreshed from the client instead of actual postback from some
submit
button  ?
My problem is that when the page is refreshed the last submit button to
be
pressed remains in the request map and the corresponding action is
performed
when the decode method of my cutsom component is called when the page is
refreshed...

Any help would be much appreciated ...
If you use Shale's ViewController feature [1] you get access to a number
of life-cycle hooks, including an isPostBack() method you can use to
answer this. You may also find useful the setPostBack() method and/or
the preprocess() method, which is only called if the request is a
postback.
