[Wonder-disc] AjaxSubmitButton -> how to use onSuccess/onFailure? (inside AjaxModalContainer)

[Leif H. <le...@ub...>]

Apologies in advance for what may be stupid questions...

I have a few spots in my app where I'm using an AjaxSubmitButton  
within an AjaxModalContainer (possibly to be converted to  
AjaxModalDialog - thanks Chuck!), which up until now has worked fine.
Now, however, I've been working on adding some validation to my  
objects, which, hopefully, will leave the modal container "open" if  
the validation fails, but can't quite figure out how to get this to  
work.

For some reason, I was presuming I could use the "onSuccess" binding  
to only close the ibox if the validation succeeded.  I've discovered,  
though, that I really have no idea how the onSuccess/onFailure  
bindings work.  What defines "success" (or failure) for a Component  
action Ajax request?  And what do I need to implement in my component  
action (or in my component/application) to cause a "failure" in the  
Ajax request?

I was poking around in the Ajax examples, but couldn't find anything  
appropriate in AjaxExample.  And I haven't been able to get  
AjaxExample2 to run yet (the exception I'm getting is "Exception  
caught: wo:str {null={value=$^title}} has no WOElement " for the  
curious).

So...any chance someone could enlighten me a bit on how to properly  
use onSuccess/onFailure when performing component actions?

Thanks,
	- Leif
