Indeed. Two years, solutione exists, works, but is not accepted by the Party. Martin Cooper, 2005-06-17: "It does have to do with the HTML 4.01 spec. With such a change, we allow the Struts tags to generate HTML that is not compliant with that spec. For *years* we have said that the Struts tags will generate valid HTML 4.01 code, and I, for one, am not willing to see us go back on that decision now." Whoa! Being a bit stalinistic, are we? What happened to freedom of choice? So un-American ;-) Craig McClanahan, 2005-06-21: "As for adding something like <html:attribute>, I think it is definitely bad policy to hand developers a loaded gun aimed at their feet." They already have boxes full of TNT on their desks. Letting them have a gun as well does not change a lot. Really, imagine a battle tank with a gun which cannot be rotated backwards: "We do not want them to fire at our own troops". Tank commanders are not idiots (en masse), so are programmers. I never took "the best thing since sliced bread" seriously, but seems that there are quite a few of Darwin Law victims, who can cut themselves with a kitchen knife and then bleed to death. Anyway, Struts task is not childproofing the house, but is to provide aid in web development, is not it?
