Is there any interest in a ParameterTag that would
allow parameters to be added to the URL generated by
LinkTag? Something that would allow you to do create
links like so:
<ul>
<logic:iterate id="product" name="product-list">
<li><html:link page="/myaction.do">
<html:parameter id="id" name="product"
property="id"/>
<html:parameter id="category" name="product"
property="category"/>
<bean:write name="product" property="name"/>
</html:link>
</logic:iterate>
</ul>
-or-
<html:link page="/myaction.do"
<html:parameter id="param1" name="mybean"
property="myproperty"/>
<html:parameter id="param2" name="mybean"
property="myotherproperty"/>
<html:parameter id="param3" value="literal-value"/>
Link Display Text
</html:link>
-or even-
<html:link>
<html:parameter
id="wombatId"><foo:wombat/></html:parameter>
Go to a Wombat
</html:link>
This would give you the ability to append an arbitrary
number of parameters to a URL while remaining purely
tag based. Also, you can specify the value of the
parameter using an application specific custom tag,
such as my wombat tag above.
It is kind-of verbose, and requires some
re-arrangement of LinkTag, but no code changes
otherwise.
Does this seem worthwhile? Is it not very useful in
light of JSTL? Speaking of that, are the struts tags
going to be deprecated at some point? Any feedback
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-Chris
p.s. Thanks for making an extremely useful framework
available and popular.
