This ticket proposes to add a feature that allows > users "fill the gap". There are two different possible goals here: (1) Support all possible HTML 4.01 attributes. (2) Prevent generation of invalid XHTML by the standard Struts tags. Goal (1) is interesting in theory, and we've responded to bug reports that tag "foo" is missing standard attribute "bar". But it has nothing to do with goal (2), which was the original reasoning for banning non-standard attributes. As this goal is also one espoused by quite a number of Struts users, I don't see a reason we should relax the stand on adding nonstandard attributes directly. As for adding something like <html:attribute>, I think it is definitely bad policy to hand developers a loaded gun aimed at their feet -- and likely to break trust with users who depend on the Struts tags to prevent just such abuses. But it's certainly a greyer area than adding attributes explicitly. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
