Howard M. Lewis Ship commented on TAP5-1400:
--------------------------------------------
Seems like something that could be done with a Mixin.
> Change AbstractLink (and its subclasses) to optionally surround rendered text
> with a tag (e.g. span) when disabled

> Key: TAP5-1400
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1400
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tapestry-core
> Reporter: nillehammer
> Priority: Minor
>
> I frequently use Tapetry's Link components (PageLink, EventLink, ActionLink)
> to build up vertical menus. I like to style the rendered a-Tags with
> "display:block" by assigning an appropriate css-Class. This expands the area
> where the link is clickeable and makes a line break after the rendered link.
> The latter spares me from surrounding the a-Tags with an additional div. When
> using the disabled-Parameter of the Link compontents the text in the body is
> rendered as is, leaving me without any tags to apply styles to. So to ensure
> the line break I would have to insert tags myself into the template.
> I was wondering, if it were possible to add an optional parameter to the Link
> compontents to make them render a tag around the text and apply the informal
> parameters "style" and "class" to them. I can think of a boolean value or a
> String value
> /**
> * When set to true, this parameter causes Link to render a a span-Tag
> around the text that is rendered when link is disabled. When set to false
> (default), the text will be rendered as is.
> **/
> @Parameter(defaultPrefix = BindingConstants.LITERAL, required = false,
> allowNull = true)
> private boolean renderSpan;
> Or second alternative
> /**
> * When set to a non null value, the provided string will be used as a tag
> that is rendered around the text that is rendered when link is disabled. When
> set to null (default) or empty String, the text will be rendered as is.
> **/
> @Parameter(defaultPrefix = BindingConstants.LITERAL, required = false,
> allowNull = true)
> private String disabledTag;
> This way the change would be backwards compatible.
