Subject: Re: Query String for tiles


There is no include anywhere in my app.  I am just combining tiles (jspf

is the name of fragments of jsp pages)to build up the page.  Top level 
of the page is a .jsp with a bunch of tiles:insert tags filling out the 
cells of a table.  I just want to dynamically build a query string for 
the top-level page so that there is something useful in the browser url 
when the session expires.

RE: Query String for tiles

2004-02-06 Thread Anand Patil
I am confused. What I meant was that you are using a jsp or some form of
jsp (judging by the extension as jspf) to render the body of the tile.
The logic (if I may) must be that the jsp attached on the tile , will
include the body attribute as a dynamic include. All I could think of is
that you need to PASS 'remember' as a parameter to that jsp. My solution
assumes that and hence says u have to use a tile controller to transfer
attributes from request to the tile context. 

Am I missing something?

If I were using a straight action, I would simply get the path from my 
ActionForward  subclass and append the query string to it.  This seems 
ponderous for placing a parameter in the url.

Is there any other way?

RE: Query String for tiles

2004-02-06 Thread Anand Patil
I assume you want to pass the query string "remember=test001" to
"/pages/time_inputeffort_body_nested.jspf". One way I can think of is
put the "remember=test001" as a request attribute in the logic of
com.rdlogic.struts.control.LoginAction. 

try reading the attribute directly from the request, since tiles does
"include" , you share the same request. So you could probably use
request.getAttribute()" ;

If that does not work use the tile controller concept 

Put a controller on the definition "tiles.self.effort". Your definition
modifies as 


 
 



In your struts-config.xml add this.


Make sure ur tile controller extends from TilesAction

In your tilecontroller guy u can get the attribute from the request and
put in the tilecontext and in your jsp for the tile you can use
 look @ tiles documentation to figure how to use
the tag. Then get that value and pass it to your jsp include via
 tag. 

HTH 

Anand.

Is it possible to attach a query string to a tiles forward.

my struts-config.xml has an entry like




 

My Tiles-defs.xml has an entry like

  



I want the net result of forward "startapp" to have a query string like

"?remember=test001"

I want the remember to be dynamically settable (during the execution of

There's a mapping.getParameter() method to 
fetch the parameter value.

I remember reading that its mostly used while 
using LookupDispatchAction.

Personally, I have used this parameter attibute 
to represent a flag/indicator to my action 
& it works fine.

fantastic, the iframes seem to work. One further question though. the
response to the form being submitted, is that the struts action class
forwards to a tile definition. The problem is that the result just
displays within the frame that is submitted. I was hoping that the
entire page is replaced with the response.

any suggestions??

thanks again.

I have done this in Internet Explorer. 
 From any frame you can get reference to any frame using
'window.top.document.all.'. once you get reference to
the iframe , I think you can get reference to the document in it and
then the from inside that document. 

 Look @ microsoft's DHTML reference for IFRAME :

However there is another issue. How do u communicate between these

When I click on one buton, I need to submit the form associated with one

Is there a good place/article/sample code  to check out, for mixing
framesets and tiles. The App that I am working on seems to need to use
both. Basically, we have to display content such that there are 2
frames, the left one showing some text, while the right one accepts user
input. Both these also need to be scrollable separately.

My intention is to somehow include these frames within a Body tile. The
other issue is that there is also a footer tile, which might need to
include a frameset. The reason being the the control buttons need to
always be visible(without having to scroll to view them).


Here is what i tried:

Layout used for the Body:





quiz actually has a value in the tile-defs that points to the
quizcontent.jsp shown below:










The problem with this is that the "/practicequizzes/quiz.jsp" is never
actually sourced and I just see nothing in the body tile.
