My choice was to refactor the sites using Tiles. I also > have to provide an admin interface to personalizable items. I have a plan > for the database level/application level changes to support these items, but > I can't arrive at a design that would work without problems on UI side. Some > of the issues are: > 1. Changing the structure of pages our UI designer is used to and replace > with tags his WYSIWUG editor can't render (this may be just an editor issue) In Struts in Action, by Ted Husted and others, the authors mention this difficulty. You may want to consider using Velocity templates instead of JSP pages because Velocity will play much nicer with most WYSIWYG editors. > 2. As the no. of personalizable points increase, it makes the above problem > worse and I quickly approach the complexity of having different sites for > each customer and update all the sites. > > Are there any better ways to approach this? > > thanks, > Vishu > > "MMS <firstam.com>" made the following > annotations on 09/17/2003 04:38:30 PM > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > "THIS E-MAIL MESSAGE AND ANY FILES TRANSMITTED HEREWITH, ARE INTENDED SOLELY > FOR THE USE OF THE INDIVIDUAL(S) ADDRESSED AND MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL, > PROPRIETARY OR PRIVILEGED INFORMATION.
