Re: immediate display alert to user while Ajax request

Hi Joachim,

you are right. This was the point.

I had another problem with getting the session in the forked process. I
asked in Discord and Max Leske helped.
To geht the session, I have to do the following in the Ajax request:

| requestContext |
 requestContext := WACurrentRequestContext value.
[ WACurrentRequestContext use: requestContext during: [ self session
dosomething ] ] fork.

Thank you for your help!
Sabine
