Hi all,

I'm trying to understand how to have a scope respond to the user's 
activation of a preview action, by running a new query for example.  
This only documentation I've seem on it is in the API docs, and that's 
not entirely clear.  I don't understand the difference between 
ScopeBase::perform_action and ScopeBase::activate, for instance.

I've put up a test case I made on Launchpad [1].  You can enter a 
number and it presents some multiples of that number.  Each preview 
page has a button that I want to drive another query showing the 
multiples of that number.  But clicking on that button does nothing.  
I've given my scope both perform_action and activate methods, but 
neither is being called.  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Robert
