Wow. I've got my app split up into separate .wo s now, and it's great, but I don't know how to pass variables around between them - e.g. how should I handle errors that need to be displayed to the user - I'd like to do something like this:

} else {
	errorMessage = "Something bad happened!";
	return (WOComponent)pageWithName("ErrorOccurred");
}

But that doesn't work, because I don't know how to tell ErrorOccurred.java what the contents of errorMessage are. Basically, I don't know how to call a function. :) At least, not one I've defined myself, let alone in another file.

Use a page wrapper. You simply create a single component to enclose your content. That page (say PageWrapper.html and .wod) only has to contain a single WOCompoent - namely WOComponentContent.

Each page should include your PageWrapper component. What happens at runtime is that your page essentially gets popped into the PageWrapper in place of the WOComponentContent. Very powerful but difficult to visualize.

Hi, I'm new to WO, and was wondering what the WO way is to implement a common look to a site. By this I mean having a dynamic, but always included header, footer, etc. I get the feeling that it has something to do with components and maybe with WOSwitchComponent, but I can't really get anything to work, so I'm currently I've been putting parts of my project (all of which is in Main.wo) into WOConditionals and toggling their values in order to display and hide them. I know there's got to be a better way. What is it?
