Re: [OS-webwork] How to mark options as "selected" for webwork:select tag?

[Matt Ho]

In ww2, ww:component would definitely be the way to do this.  I need to 
write up some docs on it ASAP, but for now, you can check out the existing 
ww tags.

Here's a simple ww:component example.  Let's say we have the following 
Action

public class MyAction implements Action {
 ....
 public List getResults();
}
And you wanted a component that would generate a set of rows for you.  You 
would probably want to write:

	<ww:component value="results" template="/foo.vm"/>

Where foo.vm looked something like:

#foreach( $item in $tag.Value )
<tr>
 <td>$item.Foo</td>
 <td>$item.Bar</td>
</tr>
#end
This example assumes that getResults() returns a Collection of objects that 
support getFoo() and getBar().

I am pretty sure #1 is already supported, but I never verified 
personally.
Matt?

For #2, you can use the webwork:component tag and instruct it to use any
template you'd like. To have the surrounding "stuff" done for you, all 
you
need to do is #include the controlheader.vm and controlfooter.vm stuff in
you new velocity template you write. It should exist in
/WEB-INF/classes/decorators/xhtml, I believe.

Subject: [OS-webwork] How to mark options as "selected" for 
webwork:select
tag?


Hi,

I've 2 Qs.

1. For an HTML select control, I would like to show the values that the
user had previously selected. I couldn't find directly any support for
this
in webwork:select. Is there a way to achieve this? Ideally, I would like
to
have another attribute in the webwork:select tag, such as
"selectedValues",
which accepts a list of selected values (that should match OPTION value
attribute) or a single selected value (in case "multiple" is false).
2. The other option I see is writing the HTML select tag by myself.
However, in that, it doesn't get rendered within the sitemesh decorator
table. So, I have to explicitly add the "tr" and "td" tags. I would like
to
know if there's a way to rightly render a normal HTML tag, such as
"select"
by using a webwork tag? I checked "webwork:component", but probably 
that's
more for custom UI templates.

Thanks,
- Nitin
