I am new to Struts 2 but have been a Struts bridge user for some time (and looking to migrate to Struts 2). I hope it is reasonable to expect that Struts2 portlets should work in "standalone" mode - i.e. not in a portlet container (a la Struts Bridge). I was having problems with ajaxExample.jsp from struts2-portlet-2.0.9. I am using uPortal 2.6 and Tomcat 5.5.23.
First I accessed the portlet in standalone mode. (Note: changed WAR file name from struts2-portlet-2.0.9 to struts2-portlet to avoid portletDefinitionId problems inside uPortal) e.g. http://localhost:8080/struts2-portlet/view/ajaxExample.action And initially I got the error: /WEB-INF/view/ajaxExample.jsp(14,42) equal symbol expected I think this is because the s:url tag was nested inside the s:div tag and something wasn't working. I then modified it and after playing around with it for a while I have managed to get a version that works standalone and inside the portal (see below). Although having to hard code the action extension (".action") and namespace ("view") is not really ideal. I also notice that the ajaxExample no longer appears in the subversion repository. Are there other AJAX/portlet issues I should be aware of? http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/struts/struts2/trunk/apps/portlet/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/view/ HTH Mark ################# <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %> <s:head theme="ajax"/> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<s:url value="/struts/tabs.css"/>"> <b>This is a tabbed pane with two panels that fetches data from a remote action via ajax</b> <s:url id="ajaxData" value="/view/ajaxData.action" /> <s:tabbedPanel id="test2" theme="simple" > <s:div id="left" label="left" theme="ajax"> This is the left pane<br/> <s:form > <s:textfield name="tt" label="Test Text" /> <br/> <s:textfield name="tt2" label="Test Text2" /> </s:form> </s:div> <s:div href="%{ajaxData}" id="ryh1" theme="ajax" label="remote one" /> <s:div id="middle" label="middle" theme="ajax"> middle tab<br/> <s:form > <s:textfield name="tt" label="Test Text44" /> <br/> <s:textfield name="tt2" label="Test Text442" /> </s:form> </s:div> <s:div href="%{ajaxData}" id="ryh21" theme="ajax" label="remote right" /> </s:tabbedPanel> <p/> A DIV that waits for 5 seconds before loading the contents <s:div id="once" theme="ajax" cssStyle="border: 1px solid yellow;" href="%{ajaxData}" delay="5000" loadingText="loading..."> Waiting for data</s:div> <p/> A DIV that is updated every 2 seconds <s:div id="twoseconds" cssStyle="border: 1px solid yellow;" href="%{ajaxData}" theme="ajax" delay="2000" updateFreq="2000" errorText="There was an error" loadingText="loading...">Initial Content </s:div> <p/> <a href="<s:url action="index"/>">Back to front page</a> -- "Paradoxically, the more time saving abstractions you are using the more you actually have to know." - Simon Willison --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
