Hi There seems be some following around the implicit mappings (hence the mail sequence), and giving it some thought might be useful. Maybe having them around is a way of easing the transition into Clay for somebody less experienced, sort of halfway Clay :).
Personally I could live without them.

I do think you have found an issue. Try adding a "value" attribute to hold the href value. The default mapping doesn't seem to have the association. <a href="#" value="http://shale.apache.org"; target="_self" alt="Shale web site">Back</a> If this works for you, please create a JIRA issue (https://issues.apache.org/struts/secure/Dashboard.jspa). There are a couple other implicit mappings missing. I was thinking about removing the implicit mappings and requiring the jsfid for binding to a JSF component. The implicit mapping is a under used feature that doesn't have great coverage. We should build it up or take it away. I'm favoring taking it away after the next release. Any thoughts? Gary
