Is there a page session object?

["Pugh, Eric" <EP...@MuseumCompany.com>]

Hi,

I am building up a list of selected files on a page...  Is there a session
object with something like "just this page"?

I know that I could store this data in the user object, or in the global
object..  How do people typically store data for just one page?

I know in JSP and stuff there are some ways, what is the Turbine preferred
way?

There are 2 ways: push the information into the context using a screen
class or pull the information into the context using a custom PullService
request scope tool.  In your case, it sounds like using the push method
may be appropriate since the functionality sounds like it is specific to a
particular page and is a simple matter of putting a hashtable (or other
collection) into the context to accumulate the list.  Pull is more
appropriate for tools (like $link) that are universally applicable on any
template.
