You can play with treads... but if you are doing something like this in the Web application, you are probably doing something wrong. Oleg. ---- Oleg Broytmann http://www.zope.org/Members/phd/ phd@phd.pp.ru Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
my design migth be flaky. if I only had a better one ... Robert ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oleg Broytmann" <phd@phd.fep.ru> To: "Robert Rottermann" <robert@redcor.ch> Cc: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 3:07 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] Looking for a timer

If you mean from the client then yes. You can use javascript. If you'd like to be more specific, then maybe I can answer more specifically. <s> HTH, -- Tim Cook, President - FreePM,Inc. http://www.FreePM.com Office: (731) 884-4126 ONLINE DEMO: http://www.freepm.org:8080/FreePM
You haven't been very specific about what you want to do. Have you looked at Xron (http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/Xron). It deals with time and waiting. Perhaps it'll help you. -- Loren

Sory for not beeing clearer I want to controll in what sequence a series of frames are displayed. To do this I want to wait for a flag giving permission to go ahead. I looked into Xron. Seems to be bit of an overkill. Anyhow, maybe that other remark that my design could be faulty migth be valid.

That's still not very specific, but it sounds like you want to do this on the client side, in which case Zope (being on the server side) won't be of much help. Perhaps you should be looking into Javascript, Javascript events, and the Document Object Model. -- Loren
