I’m working on an app where some page-level informational messages (such as validation problems) are stored in ERXThreadStorage, and displayed by the page wrapper. This works great for full page loads.

In a few places, I’m doing some Ajax submissions with AjaxSubmitButton. In the usual case, nothing goes wrong and an AjaxUpdateContainer displays some new information. I figured that a reasonable way to display validation errors from these Ajax submissions would be to stash the messages in ERXThreadStorage in the usual way, and then use ERXRedirect and its setComponentToPage() to just force a full page reload. This all works except (critically) the _retrieval_ of the messages from ERXThreadStorage—there’s nothing there. Is this expected? Is the invocation of the action method by the Ajax submission on a different thread?
