[OS-webwork] Tip: WAS: relative path tag

[Maurice Parker]

I really try hard to keep servlet specific code out of my Actions. But, sometimes you do want to have access to Servlet stuff in your JSP View. That's allowable. You still don't want to use scriptlets tho. So I code an Action that is only used in the View. This Action will grab the necessary Servlet Specific code from ServletActionContext.

I'll call this action PageServices and here's how to use it:

<webwork:action value="PageServices">
<webwork:if test="isUserInRole('admin')">
Show admin options
</webwork:if>
</webwork:action>

There's probably some syntactical errors there, but I hope it conveys the general idea.

You could have all your actions extend a base class, which has a getContextPath

Morning,

Currently I have the following in my JSP code...

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen"
href="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/css/generic.css" />

It would be nice to have something like the following...

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<ww:contextPath
/>/css/generic.css" />

If there was such a tag I could pretty much remove all of my scriptlet code
from my JSP pages...

Thougths?
