[jira] Commented: (JSPWIKI-436) Auto-save during editing

["Andrew Jaquith (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-436?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12834622#action_12834622 ] 

Andrew Jaquith commented on JSPWIKI-436:
----------------------------------------

If and when someone takes a whack at solving this issue, the auto-save function should use the JavaScript Stripes.submitFormEvent() function to submit the current form contents with the parameters intact. This is important because of the hidden spam-protect parameters injected by the wiki:spamProtect tag.

For example, the auto-save code might do this:

var autosaver = Stripes.submitFormEvent( "editForm", "autosave", "autosaveMessage", callback )

...where:
* "editForm" is the ID of the textarea's enclosing form
* "autosave" is the name of the EditActionBean event handler method autosave() that performs the actual save
* "autosaveMessage" is the div element that holds any response messages
* "callback" is a callback function that executes (if needed) when the AJAX call completes

The autosave() method should also be annoted with @SpamProtect (like save() is) to ensure that we check for the spam parameters.
