Here's another question that's straight on for Quixote.
I've found that at times I need to do a fair bit of reorganizing of my
code in order to, e.g., get the right things in the , while I'm
actually deep in the body of the . Given the very "sequential"
nature of "HTML accretion" in Quixote, that can be a little tricky.
Has anyone else longed for a DOM-like approach at times, where one
could, as an _alternative_ to just returning strings, do something like:
response.head.append('bit of html')
or
response.getElement('table1').getChild('header_row').insertChild('Percentage
s | ')
?
I realize that there are lots of technical challenges involved in doing
DOMish things on an as-yet ill-formed document. At this point I'm just
trying to figure out if my wishes seem bizarre to the rest of you.
