Hi In my quest for better samples and documentation, I have started creating sample Clay configurations for the variuos Tomahawk components. I have run into an issue that has made me scratch my head a bit.
First there is an issue[1], [2] with the Tomahawk JSCoockMenu and the inner form. There is a workaround for this that can be achieved if you code the menu in Clay-HTML style as outlined in [2]. Now trying to achieve the same in XML is however not that easy. The reason being that you can not set the "name" attribute of the inputHidden component in such a way that is does not get mangled with an "id....." in front of it when it gets rendered. This leads me to wonder: Does the "name" attribute have to follow the naming scheme of the id's? As far as I can tell it is not need when building/restoring the component tree, so it should be possible to set it to some name and have its name remain untouched. If is has not been specified, then the renderer is free to do what ever it wants. I have noticed that the only components that get a "name" rendered by default are forms and hidden inputs. For the form I can see why one needs a "name" attribute, but not for the hidden inputs. I propose that we in Clay add the ability so set the name as an attribute, and have it retain that value unchanged.
