Support for adding parameters to event links with javascript
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TAP5-521
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-521
Project: Tapestry 5
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.0.18
Reporter: Inge Solvoll
Priority: Minor
A Tapestry.js hook into the parameters of event and action links would be very
useful in order to create more powerful client side controls. As of now, I'm
using a function created by equanda that performs string transformations on a
generated link. It works, but it would be so much cleaner and safer with a
built-in function looking something like this:
Tapestry.addEventLinkContextValue(link, value) {
link = link + '/' + value;
}
This is of course a simplified example that probably wouldn't work... :)
Here are some use cases to make it clearer why I want this feature:
1. A dropdown that updates a zone through its onchange event, pushing the
selected value into the context of the trigger link.
2. A textfield that works like an autocompleter on a connected zone. Same
pattern, the entered text is pushed into the context of the trigger link.
