Absolutely.  Can you make that tag available now?

Subject: Need some votes for improved Javascript support in Link Tag


Hey all,

I submitted an enhancement to struts. Read the following and if it sounds
worth having in struts give me a vote on the developer's list or make some
noise for some of the gurus to see.

Here is the info on the tag:

I don't know if a similar solution has been provided, but, I tweaked the
Link Tag to support the writing of
'javascript:[function_name]([param1,param2,param3...])' to the href
attribute of the final output. Here is a summarization of it's
functionality:

I added the following attributes:

function - This is the name of the javascript function that will be called;

functionName - This is the name of the bean that will provide parameter
values from one of it's properties.

functionProperty - This is a property of a bean that will either provide a
String or an ArrayList to populate the parameters of the function

urlIndex - This allows you to include the url generated by href,forward or
page to be included at a specific place in the function's parameters.

There is another class that I wrote that does the actual processing and
preparation of the url. I named it EcmaUtil.  I modeled the computeURL and
computerParam methods of the RequestUtils class when I built the methods for
the EcmaUtil.

The LinkTag class that I wrote extends the BaseHandlerTag under the
org.apache.struts.taglib.html package of struts jar.

I know the code needs a bit of reworking to fit back in to the struts
framework. I stripped out the MessageReources for the most part and removed
some exception handling that will need to be included again.

Anyways, if nobody has done this in the nightly or if it sounds like it
might be of use. Let me know and I will post the code,the tld and an example
of it's usage.

EXAMPLE OF USAGE:

This tag works exactly like the struts html tag with expanded feature
outlined above:

pwshtml:link forward=listings/detail/popup function=popUpWin
urlIndex=1 paramId=image paramName=image
img src=image.jpg some text/pwshtml:link

This code will produce the follwing html
a
href=javascript:popUpWin('/do/listings/detail/popup?image=NWMT203336.jpg')
img src=image.jpg/a

Of course some of the elements are arbitrary to the values in your beans.
But you should be able to traverse the code and get the idea.

Thanks in advance.
