I think it is useful (though also somewhat dependent on the subject of our other thread). The only thing left that might need some discussion is the precise syntax we'll use for this. I'm mostly wondering if it will also be useful to go back in the widget tree, i.e. something like ../.. in xpath notation. Here I also see some relationship with how we would address widgets in the expression language, which we'll likely switch to JXPath, so using slashes instead of dots to separate widgets might be meaningful. PS: in the future, it would be helpful if you could post a diff instead of a complete file, especially if the change is small. Don't know if you're familiar with CVS or other version control systems, but the small learning curve is definitely worth it. -- Bruno Dumon http://outerthought.org/ Outerthought - Open Source, Java & XML Competence Support Center [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
