[albatross-users] pushing and popping

[Eric S. Johansson]

following some ofthe suggestions I received, I restructured how I'm handling 
login.  for example:

def login_validation(self,context):

     # check for authentication
     authentication = login_authentication()

     if hasattr(context,'_albatross_authentication') and \
        authentication.validate_token(context._albatross_authentication):
         # token is there and validates.  Return to calling context
         return 1

     syslog.syslog("let's go to authentication")
     #need to go off and do login authentication
     context.push_page('login')


Application.validate_request=login_validation


overwrites Application.validate_request's method with my code login_validation. 
  It's cool and that my code transfers controlled to my login page, I enter my 
username and password and then, on submission nothing happens except and error 
message telling me I have premature end of script headers.  It's not clear 
what's going on because neither of my two display objects appear to get 
executed.  I suspect I have some form of fault happening very early on and I am 
puzzling on how to get a handle on the error.  Any suggestions?  Running the 
script by hand at the command line and paying attention to network dumps aren't 
helping.

On the other hand, maybe getting some sleep might help (up to early, up too 
late, Mars is beautiful and has been all this opposition).
