Hey guys,
If you have a call like:
<lift:mysnippet form="post"> is translated to <form method="post"
action="blah">
however, is there a way to set the id attribute on that node? Simply
adding the id in the markup is removed by lifts processing, so thats
no good as most javascript / css things either need id or class to
select the appropriate element.
As im on a tight timeline with something, I just hacked the code to
make it work with the id attribute (i know thats bad!) - we need a
better solution really, and one that can accommodate any custom user
attributes. Currently, the lift head looks like:
def checkAttr(attr_name: String, in: MetaData): MetaData =
in.filter(_.key == attr_name).toList match {
case Nil => Null
case x => new UnprefixedAttribute(attr_name,
Text(x.first.value.text), Null)
}
attrs.get("form").map(ft => (
(<form action={S.uri} method={ft.text}>{ret}</form> %
checkMultiPart(attrs)) %
checkAttr("class", attrs)) % checkAttr("id",attrs) ) getOrElse
ret
attrs.get("form").map(ft => <form action={S.uri}
method={ft.text}>{ret}</form> % checkMultiPart(attrs)) getOrElse ret
}
def checkMultiPart(in: MetaData): MetaData = in.filter(_.key ==
"multipart").toList match {
case Nil => Null
case x => new UnprefixedAttribute("enctype", Text("multipart/
form-data"), Null)
}
As im not familiar with the MetaData class, I wasn't sure how best to
alter this. It seems we have 3 cases: unprefixed attributes, prefixed
attributes and null. Perhaps some kind of flatmap/map or something to
itterate through the attributes and return the appropriate object.
Anyway, i must dash - cheers guys
Tim
