Just to be clear, I'm not complaining about the Dojo plugin being deprecated ( I understand the reasons for deprecation ). I was just trying to determine the future of the Struts Ajax <sx: tags so I can find an alternative solution for my needs if need be. Gus.

So, the short answer is, step up or shut up. We'd be happy to see someone take on this task, but I have had it up to _here_ with people who complain and expect someone else to do the work. -- Martin Cooper On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 10:19 PM, Andreas Joseph Krogh < andr...@officenet.no> wrote: On Wednesday 14 January 2009 23:42:18 Gustave Pheiffers wrote: > Thanks for the info. > > It would be a shame if the <sx tags were to disappear because they are easy > to use especially the "<sx:submit validate="true"..." with Ajax validation. > But I suppose its alot of work to upgrade/maintain the DOJO plugin. I think there should be a warning-sign about this on the web ( http://struts.apache.org/2.1.6/index.html). Built-in AJAX-support (first-class AJAX support) is one of the things Struts2 announces as a main-feature, and with the dojo-plugin going away this isn't true any more. This means Struts-2.1 no longer has any decent ui-tags? -- Andreas Joseph Krogh < andr...@officenet.no> Senior Software Developer / CEO ------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ OfficeNet AS | The most difficult thing in the world is to | Karenslyst Allé 11 | know how to do a thing and to watch | PO.
