So I am going to assume that it does.
And, this seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do. If a company has
existing functionality in javascript, they want to link to it. It is illogical
to expect them to rewrite their javascript stuff in Struts. Or in anything
else, for that matter.
Dennis,
We do the same thing here and it's not complicated to do. I don't think you
need to mess with the <html:link> tag. Just create the tag normally, the same
way as you would sans Struts, and use your beans to supply the values.
The three properties are prop1, prop2, prop3.
<logic:iterate id="listdata" name="theList"
type="putTheFullClassNameHere" scope="page">
<tr>
<td>
<a href="javascript:showStuffForPerson(
'<bean:write name="listdata"
property="prop1"/>',
'<bean:write name="listdata"
property="prop2"/>',
'<bean:write name="listdata"
property="prop3"/>')">
<bean:write name="listdata" property="prop1"/>
</a>
</td>
Have fun.
--Tom
