The reason why I mentioned Firefox is that it generally tends to be more
standards-compliant than IE (W3C standards, that is).
It probably works with your tag perfectly, if the HTML doesn't contain a
'label' attribute.
I asked for the HTML produced so that I could see if it was
W3C-compliant HTML or not. Can't you just cut and paste the HTML by
doing a 'view-source' on one of your webpages where you have implemented it?
I am only familiar with the 'label' html tags that can be used to link
up text and key combinations with form fields (accessibility stuff).

Good Evening from across the pond-
An attempt to answer your queries..
Yes the SubmitTag label is a protected String attribute whose value is
written as html inside the start of Tag method doStartTag()
The source code for SubmitTag.java is located at
http://www.docjar.com/html/api/com/RuntimeCollective/webapps/tag/SubmitTag.java.html
the base class BaseHandlerTag doc located at
http://www.docjar.com/docs/api/org/apache/struts/taglib/html/BaseHandlerTag.html
the BaseHandlerTag contains a protected method isXhtml() which
interrogates the Tag object to determine if the tag object is nested
within <html:html> tag that has xhtml = true
harkening back to the Struts 1.1 doc stating..
"If you use an <html:html xhtml="true> or <html:xhtml/> element on your
page, the tags will render as XHTML (since Struts 1.1). "
so since this statement is met in the case that Xhtml() renders true is
this condition is met then I would say yes these Tag classes are 'XHTML'
compliant
With regards to working in firefox I would need to have more specifics
on the firefox specific functionality you are speaking of
in order to answer the question in any comprehensively intelligent fashion
Does this answer your question(s)?
Cheers,
Martin-

Martin,
what HTML does this taglib produce? Seems as if it would be so:
<input type="submit" label="some text" value="delete" />
A cursory check on the W3C website confirmed my suspicions - I don't
believe that the label attribute is valid HTML4 and if so is unlikely
to be supported by browsers like Firefox.
Is it XHTML? Is it IE only?

Whatever solution is proposed is proferred based on the predilections

Accordingly I *believe* I have found an incredibly simple
implementation of SubmitTag for use in your app
which extends org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BaseHandlerTag the
location is
http://www.docjar.com/docs/api/com/RuntimeCollective/webapps/tag/SubmitTag.html
Note that once you have constructed the Tag in your jsp there are 2
methods that will be of immediate use to you
getValue which acquires the value of the property to submit (this
presupposes you have indeed set a property attribute first!..)
getLabel which acquires the actual label which is the unique text
string which is a mandatory string which must be supplied
to properly construct the tag
name is the other attribute which is required to properly contruct
the SubmitTag
I hope this works for you,
Martin-
I will now wait for Dakota Jack to explain why this is an *(!&^%ic
solution ..

Actually this won't work either. The problem is that the request
object has been purloined and given another wrapper name. You might
want to look at the code before giving these ideas.
