RE: not render any client specific attributes [was: IE's autocomplete]
Gin Chen, is this what you were thinking? !--Might work with either Map or Collection.-- % ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); list.add(customField1, anything I may need); list.add(customField2, other stuff); pageContext.setAttribute(customHtml, list); % First Name:html:text property=userFirstName customAttrs=customHtml/br Last Name:html:text property=userLastName customAttrs=customHtml/ would render: First Name:input type=text name=userName customField1=anything I may need customField2=other stuffbr Last Name:input type=text name=userName customField1=anything I may need customField2=other stuff -- James Mitchell Software Engineer/Struts Evangelist http://www.open-tools.org If you were plowing a field, which would you rather use?

I realise Struts is a server side framework but take the Struts notation for say an input box e.g. html:text property=name size=35/ It supports the attributes 'alt', 'disabled' and various Javascript-specific extensions which are not all supported or rendered the same in different browsers...

The auotcomplete function is a security risk or is percieved as such by many people, it would seem more like common sense to cater for it in whatever means possible, even if it simply serves to make STRUTS more attractive as a rapid development framework for people who are going to use IE to view the application and where security is an issue. HTML has a standard way of disabling it, e.g. input type=text autocomplete=off ... this is how it's disabled in many banking applications etc. where security is a big concern...

Struts, JSTL, EL, etc..., facilitate rendering data in the client. So unless HTML or Javascript has a standard way to disable MS IE's *autocomplete* for input forms, you are at the mercy of the client. robert -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2002 6:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: IE's autocomplete Hi, I'm trying to get the definitive answer on this, will STRUTS have functionality to disable MS IE's *autocomplete* for input forms in the near future? Has anyone had experience disabling this by any other means? Thanks,

I believe this will be in JSP 2.0 as an option in the TLD. Mark Roth wrote One thing we did notice is that struts tags have a LOT of attributes :) Many of them simply echo their value straight to HTML. We've added a feature to JSP 2.0 called dynamic attributes to help reduce the number of attributes one needs to declare for a tag. -Original Message- From: James Mitchell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2002 12:45 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: not render any client specific attributes [was: IE's autocomplete] Gin Chen, is this what you were thinking? !--Might work with either Map or Collection.-- % ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); list.add(customField1, anything I may need); list.add(customField2, other stuff); pageContext.setAttribute(customHtml, list); % First Name:html:text property=userFirstName customAttrs=customHtml/br Last Name:html:text property=userLastName customAttrs=customHtml/ would render: First Name:input type=text name=userName customField1=anything I may need customField2=other stuffbr Last Name:input type=text name=userName customField1=anything I may need customField2=other stuff -- James Mitchell Software Engineer/Struts Evangelist http://www.open-tools.org If you were plowing a field, which would you rather use?
