Hi all, Just wanted to submit a tip for posterity after wrestling with an issue for a couple hours with Displaytag and its auto sort links. I certainly wish I could have found the post I'm about to write earlier today, so hopefully this might prevent some gray hairs for someone else someday.
I have a simple order search page with a single criterium: zip code. The virgin visit to the page offers the input field and a "Search" button. All subsequent searches will loop back to the same page with the original form above and search results, if any, below. The ActionBean offers 'view' (default) and 'search' event handlers for a view > page > search > view > page type of flow. When I added Displaytag's auto-sort feature into the mix I started getting this exception: net.sourceforge.stripes.exception.StripesRuntimeException: Multiple event parameters [search, view] are present in this request. Only one event parameter may be specified per request. Otherwise, Stripes would be unable to determine which event to execute. Here's an example of the generated sort link: http://mycomputer/MyApp/Search.action?d-5453-s=0&__fp=pfxUSCHKrlg%3D&_sourcePage=49_-ve0ysnAdduefxUSQiSKlo4jbrfhuXjLEvQ1KhFA%3D&d-5453-o=2&search=Enter&view=&zip=90210 Note how the link includes 'search=Enter&view=' near the end. I still don't know where Displaytag is digging up the 'view=' part, but having both search and view is the killer. In my case, I don't need or want 'view' because I need the search to execute again. Fortunately (and here's the punchline), Displaytag offers the 'excludedParams' property and it works for me. Code examples: -- Before (bad) -- <d:table htmlId="searchResults" id="it" name="${actionBean.results}" requestURI="" defaultsort="2" defaultorder="descending" class="tbloutline" style="width: 100%;"> ... sortable columns in here </d:table> -- After (good) -- <d:table htmlId="searchResults" id="it" name="${actionBean.results}" requestURI="" excludedParams="view" defaultsort="2" defaultorder="descending" class="tbloutline" style="width: 100%;"> ... sortable columns in here </d:table> Cheers, and thanks for Stripes.
