The quick solution would probably be for you to extend PageNameTag to
provide your own prettification routine, if the page name appears to be
a part of your photo collection. Then you can use your own tag in the
template, or you can replace the regular PageNameTag by editing
jspwiki.tld.
And hey, that's why this list is for - no large software project can be
grasped easily, so it's good to have a place where you can ask stuff ;-)
Thanks, Janne, for both the quick tip and also the encouragement.
I had already thought about extending PageNameTag with my own
PrettyPageNameTag while I was researching my question. It certainly
seems the most natural solution to my problem, but I was nervous about
getting the execution environment right.
I feel somewhat constrained because I am working with a submitted plugin
which is not intended to be packaged as part of jspWiki. It is part of
my own namespace at the moment, copied into WEB-INF/lib and loaded via
jspwiki.plugin.searchpath. I haven't worked with tags before, but I can
see that the standard set are all defined in WEB-INF/jspwiki.tld. If I
were to add my own tag definition to WEB-INF/jspwiki.tld, do you think
the same ClassLoader that loads my plugin from my own jar would also be
find my custom tag in the same jar?
