Frontend: prepopulate cached form fields for anonymous users in JS

Reported by Sven Fuchs | July 25th, 2008 @ 10:06 AM | in Release 0.1.0

Maybe add stories or view specs for all forms on the front end and check whether they behave as expected (no data populated to form fields when the page get's cached).

    Forms like comment form on the blog article view and post form on the forum topic view are page_cached, so they can not have any data populated - neither 1) when the user is logged in as an anonymous user nor 2) when the user had entered invalid data and the form is redisplayed.

    We can solve that by

    1) do an ajax request if the anonymous user cookie is present and look up the anonymous user data OR just store the anonymous user data to the cookie as well

    2) have the same forms on another action which is not page_cached and just display it in the usual Rails way populated with the invalid record(s)
