There are two defaults which might be relevant:
   WOHttpAdaptorReceiveTimeout           (def 120)
   WOHttpAdaptorSendTimeout              (def 120)
I think the value is in seconds (2 minutes in this case).

But thinking about it, probably not. The browser is timinig out, not=20
the server, right?
One would need to search WebKit documentation to solve that.

No, probably also a WebKit issue. I would have assumed that this works=20=

Maybe the WOPort default works? (eg -WOPort 21021 as an argument) But=20
I'm not sure whether SOPE:X messes with that :-)


If you have generic SOPE questions now that it works on OSX they might=20=

What do you mean by that? Something like this:
   A: WOConditional {
     condition =3D "true";
   }
?

Or
   A: WOConditional {
     condition =3D bindingWhichReturnsAString;
   }
?

The boolValue of the string depends on its contents. 'true', 'YES', '1'=20=

etc will return YES, everything else 'no'.

With SOPE 4.5 you can use the "-isNotEmpty" or "-isNotNull" bindings,=20
eg:

   HasLogin: WOConditional {
     condition =3D account.login.isNotEmpty;
   }

Another feature which is often handy is the 'value' binding:

   IsRoot: WOConditional {
     condition =3D account.login;
     value     =3D "root";
   }
