Re: how to quote nested tags
Lacerda, Wellington (AFIS) [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: In the current spec it is not allowed to use a tag inside another tag. If you need to use results from a tag processing in another tag, currently you must expose it as a bean in some scope and then access that bean in the other tag. Or you nest your tags like my:foo my:bar my:baz stuff /my:baz /my:bar /my:foo and let them evaluate their body (instead of attributes). -- ...roland huss consol.de
Re: how to quote nested tags
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Felix von Delius) writes: I guess that would work, thanks. But that brings me to another idea - wouldn't it be easier to define a Bean to keep that temporary value? Like this: jsp:useBean id=tempBean class=some.strange.JavaBean jsp:setProperty name=tempBean property=str value=x:foo a='bar' / / /jsp:useBean x:baz b='jsp:getProperty name=tempBean property=str /' / That would be much less efford than introducing a new taglib just for keeping a value (and IMHO has the same unreadability-factor than the taglib solution ;-) Or am I something missing?

Re: unable to programmatically perform a submit

Sorry, I didn't follow the complete thread. We ran in the same problem and found that the default property submit for the name of the submit tag in org.apache.struts.taglib.html.SubmitTag doesn't by no means works well with javascript (since it is the same as the javascript method name submit()).

Re: Extending ActionServlet
On Tue, 19 Jun 2001, TODD HARNEY wrote: Is there a way I can override the ActionServlet class to allow for multiple struts-config.xml files to be parsed for a single application? Our struts-config.xml file is getting rather large and it would be nice if we could split the struts-config.xml into multiple .xml files and have the ActionServlet, or a descendant, be able to parse all of the config files and store the action mappings.

Re: Action before loading a page
Peter Alfors [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I don't think that you have control of when the frames are loading. The browser attempts to load both frames simultaneously. (Please correct me if I am wrong) Therefore, you would have to do something kinda funky (javascript) to instruct another frame to 'reload' after the current frame finishes. If you cannot gaurantee that your users have javascript enabled, you will probably want to avoid it. Right. To be more concrete, in your first frame your tag could create for example an 'onload'-handler, which updates your second frame with an request to an action (probably with extra parameters appended). However, I vote for Petes suggestion to put an action in front of your frameset. This action could fetch all your data, put it into the request and let your tags render the results. It seems to me always a good idea to use action for bussines logic (e.g. database lookups) and tags for visual rendering only (drop down list with the results from the action). cu... -- ...roland huss consol.de

struts, tomcat and own JNDI service provider
Ahoi, I have a problem with tomcat 3.2.1, stuts, Jdk 1.3 and JNDI. In our struts application we are using an own JNDI provider for looking up plugins. However, since we are using JDK 1.3, which includes the javax.naming packages itself, they are always loaded by the system classloader. Hence, our very own JNDI-SP residing below WEB-INF/classes is not found and an ClassNotFound exception is thrown. Putting jndi.jar from sun into WEB-INF/lib doesn't work, either. The only solution we came up so far was to put all out application classes and struts.jar into tomcat's CLASSPATH, which is really a bad idea. Are there any other, better ways to get tomcat to load the javax.naming packages with the webapp-class loader ? thanx, cu... -- ...roland huss consol.de [ The subject might be slightly off-topic. But since there has been already some extensive discussion on classloaders in this list and the problem also concerns any struts app using own JNDI-provider with tomcat, I hope I'm not too far away from the list. ]
