Jose L Martinez-Avial commented on WW-3908:
-------------------------------------------
I believe that the reason for that is that required is an attribute defined in
the TLD, so it is not treated as a dynamic attribute, like other HTML5. I think
the tag uses that attribute for client-side validations, but if client-side
validation is not used, then the tag does not pass the attribute to the tag,
like it does with the dynamic attributes. I have the same problem.
> FreeMarker textfield tag doesn't allow the new HTML5 required attribute

> Key: WW-3908
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3908
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.3.6
> Environment: Windows 7 + JDK1.6.0_27 + The new Struts2 2.3.6 +
> FreeMarker 2.3.19
> Reporter: Loic VSCT
>
> It is impossible to use the new HTML5 *required* attribute with the
> *textfield* tag currently available in FreeMarker. Other HTML5 attributes
> seem to work as expected.
> => For example, I want to use the new *required* attribute in order to have
> the following very simple HTML code :
> {code:html}
> <input type="text" required="required" id="test-X">
> {code}
> => I have tried to use the following code in a classic FTL file :
> {code:title=test.ftl|borderStyle=solid}
> <@s.textfield required="required" id="test-1"/>
> <@s.textfield required="true" id="test-2"/>
> <@s.textfield required=required id="test-3"/>
> <@s.textfield required=true id="test-4"/>
> {code}
> The HTML result is always :
> {code:html}
> <input type="text" id="test-X">
> {code}
