--------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://jira.opensymphony.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=WW-337 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WW-337 Summary: Text formatting support from tag library Type: New Feature Status: Unassigned Priority: Major Project: WebWork Components: Views Versions: 2.0-beta2 Assignee: Reporter: John Patterson Created: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 4:39 AM Updated: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 4:39 AM Description: Currently code like this is required to format values that are not 'simple' properties of an action OR that need to be formatted in more than one way: <ww:property value="formateDate(startDate,'dd MMM yyyy')"/> <ww:property value="formateDate(startDate, 'h:mm a')"/> The TypeConverter approach does not allow for the formatting of one property in more than one way. For example, to output a date as both a time part and a date part or to shorten a long description String into an short abstract. For these types of formatting issues maybe a new "formatting" API should be created that can be controlled at the view level directly with tags. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
