Add method attribute to html:link
---------------------------------
Key: STR-2928
URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-2928
Project: Struts 1
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Taglibs
Environment: all
Reporter: David Durham
Priority: Minor
It would be nice to have the html:link tag accept an optional "method"
attribute that defaults to "get" and when set to "post" does one of a couple
different things.
1 - adds a form, method="post" with hidden elements and a javascript link to
submit the form.
2 - adds a form, method="post", with hidden elements and a button to trigger
the action
This is needed because of the issue brought to light by google accelerator wrt
URLs that do something other than retrieve data-- they need to be HTTP POSTs.
So a common use case for html:link is to create "delete" links, which should be
http POSTs.
