tg.flash documentation and expected behavior

[Pipoun]

Hi all,

I've only found this page for the in depth tg.flash doc:
http://turbogears.org/2.1/docs/modules/tgflash.html
( and of course, many examples in theses forums and the TG
tutorials :) )

What are the differents possible states?
And above all, I'm wondering what should be the expected behavior? I
was guessing some sort of dhtml fading out notification area on top of
the body page...
But from the tests I've done, the notification bar is static, is there
a way to animate it?

Thanks a lot!

see in your master.html there is a section where the flash is set.

The default "effect" is pretty simply just a html entry. The effects
will be library dependent so you should use whichever toolkit you
prefer to do animations.

Thanks for link!
I can see a delay parameter in the js implementation, but I haven't
found out how to set it with the python flash module.
Is it possible?

Yup, I've already played with the master examlple, but the flash
banner is static. I just would like to know how to close it with a
timeout.

Sorry, I'm lacking of knowledge regarding your last sentence. Do you
plan to make the effects dependent on external js library? Is it
already possible?
And above all, would it possible to have a link (or info) that shows
how to do that?

Thanks again!

Sorry no idea about that.

Because this is outside the scope of the project. webflash shouldn't
do "fancy" effects. That is why the code is in your project and not
buried inside the framework.

What you want can be done very simple with a JS library like jquery
http://docs.jquery.com/Effects/fadeOut

Think of it from a framework perspective, what is the right effect?
why should we normalize on one? why wil the framework force you on
using a JS library?
