Subject: Taglibs - a newbie
question
I'm new to taglibs, and so far it really seems
like a great idea. But I cannot get the collaborating tags to work the way I
want them to.
I want to create a html file like
this
<%@ taglib uri="mytags" prefix="mt"
%>
<html>
<body>
<table>
<mt:getFAQ>
<tr>
<td>Datum
2001-01-01</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><mt:getQuestion/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><mt:getAnswer/></td>
</tr>
</mt:getFAQ>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I cannot get the GetFAQTag to iterate...! From
the GetQuestionTag ( and answer) I call
GetFAQTag faqparent = (GetFAQTag)
findAncestorWithClass(this, GetFAQTag.class);
and then I call a method called
faqparent.getNext(); which returns me the question or the answer.
I suppose I have figured out what types of tags I
should use when doing this kind of tag interaction.
Did the tutorials on the orionserver.com but my
inferior brain cannot figure out how to combine these things to do what I
want, so if anyone could give me a hint I would be very grateful!
Thnx in advance
Johan
