Geoff Bowers spoke the following wise words on 3/03/2004 3:00 PM EST:

I think the best way forward is for folks to outline scenarios where they would require such an option. That way we can be sure to come up with a solution that is generic and not specific.

I need the ability to pass a 'class' param to a display method from the execute method of a rule.


I need to wrap an entire rule's output in some html (before and after) but only if the rule outputs something (size(aInvocations) > 0). Maybe we could have display methods for rules?

Along the same idea, I need to wrap a entire container's output in some html (before and after) but only if the container outputs content.
Maybe this could be done just adding some params to the container tag or maybe something more robust is needed?


I need each rule's output in its own struct in aInvocations so as to distinguish the each rule's objects in aInvocations.

Also container filters could be quite powerful. They could be used to impelement something along the lines of removeDupes() before any rule's display method is called. Not sure if you need user-level assignment of filters or just have them defined in the template.

Just my 2c of what would make things a lot more flexible.

At the mo I have to stick with outputting from execute()
