[Zope] Zope and long running sessions question...

[Christopher A. Wright]

Hi,

I have an application that requires the user to fill in some forms. The 
next form to serve up to the user depends on the contents of the last 
form. The transaction looks like this:
user requests service:
				Zope starts up service 
				Zope sends first page to the user
User responds
				Zope decides what page to serve next
				Serves the page
User responds
			........repeat as needed
				
				Zope returns the result of the service
				request to the user.

{
for Zope read Bobo, I guess. I'm really interested in the long running 
Python process stuff, more than the delegation, roles etc at the moment.
}

I'm wondering how Zope would handle this. At the initial service request, 
Zope would return some html, but in some sense, it's really a function 
call OUT to the user to get some more data. the user then responds, but 
again, that's really a call to Zope.

I would love to understand how Zope might work here...

cheers and thanks for any help
