how do I mix modules and tiles ?
I have made two test project's, one where I use modules and one where I use tiles. And they both work fin. Now for my prodution project I what to mix the two. But I dont what to use a tiles-def.xml for each modul. I what to make a head modul, that contains a header tile, a bottom tile, a center tile and a welcome page. The header tile will be made up of links to sub modules. The header and bottom tile is the same on all page in the project. The submodules, then have to fill in the center tile. Is there a way to control the rest of me sub modules in me head modul? This must be a classic way of doing things. But I cant seem to find a good how-to one mixing the two. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Best Regards /marc - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: ActionForm key in request/session
Fair point, at least as far as params go :) I never noticed the getParameterMap() method to be honest. The methods in RequestUtils (and the one in SessionUtils) came from the fact that during debugging I (and I think most of us) have a need to easily see what's coming in with a request. So, I wind up doing the following in Actions and/or JSPs with these methods: log.debug(RequestUtils.getAllRequestInfo(request)); (getAllRequestInfo calls the other three methods to get parameters, attributes and headers). It's certainly not rocket science or anything, I certainly never claimed these functions were the savior of the world or anything :) but it's a nice and easy way to see what's going on (I do my development in Tomcat, so I simply glance over to my second monitor in the console window to see the output in real-time). -- Frank W.

RE: [OT] Survey - Tell me what you think about Struts.
I addressed the stuffing up of any useful CVS functionality by using Jalopy source code formatter. http://jalopy.sourceforge.net. The key is for someone to specify the source code formatting rules, usually the defaults are close enough for most. Jalopy provides export functionality, so all you have to do is export the settings and distribute the export file to all of your developers. Run Jalopy on the files before you commit them to CVS and your problem is resolved.

The fact that they automatically format the whole file according to their xml whitespace, indenting and new line rules means that every line can change when a 2nd developer edits the file, which really stuffs up any useful CVS functionality. My biggest issue with struts is the large number of obtuse servlet exceptions or plain empty pages that newbies can cause by doing something wrong. Linked to that is the large amount of definitions in xml where the correctness is uncheckable until runtime.

Obviously the parameters/attributes/etc. in the session and request could be marshalled into an object/xml/blob that PHP could understand; there are some useful utilities in the sandbox made just for that purpose ;) Session tracking is trivial, just use the session ID from the java side and keep a hash on the PHP side that uses the same ID (I do something similar with Lisp using Lisplets). The easiest way, of course, would be to write jPHP and have phpServlet and phpTags so you could have both PHP-only presentation but still allow mixing of PHP code via phpScriptlets in your existing JSP/Velocity/FreeMarker pages.

There is also another project that can help: http://www.mojavelinux.com/projects/studs/ Be aware that this is a reimplementation of Struts in PHP. Also it is possible from PHP to invoke Java code, or even open a socket connection and do some kind of marshalling; but I think that is much more complicated than using existing presentation technologies as JSP or Tapestry.

Re: Setting focus on invalid form submission
I think this would have to be done with Javascript. And it might be a bit tricky determining what the first invalid element was.

Brady Relatively new to the list, so I apologize if this has already been submitted.

Re: ajax proj
Hmm... well, if I was doing something like that in real life I might well do it from the Action :) That doesn't make it the generally accepted right answer' thought. I think most people would tell you to forward to a JSP to generate what really amounts to just a snippet of HTML... IIRC, one of my examples does that. Keeps the view more properly separated and all that architectural jazz. Sometimes I think we all get so wrapped up in trying to achieve the perfect architecture that we overcomplicate things... if all I'm returning from the server is the HTML for a bunch of option elements, it doesn't really strike me as a bad idea to do that in an Action (or maybe from a delegate class that returns a string that the Action then returns). I'm not sure the developer community at large would agree with that though, they seem to be more concerned with perfect architecture, hence that note in the code :) -- Frank W.

Re: ajax proj
Sure! :)
Basically view the entire server portion as one piece... at the end of
whatever it is that it does, it's returning HTML (whether it's a complete
page, as usual, or just a snippet, like with Ajax techniques usually).
Whether that HTML is written directly to response in an Action or a JSP
processes (which is writing out to response essentially remember), it's
the same thing.
The fifth example in my webapp from the article shows this, albeit very
simplistically... the Action just constructs a string from the parameters
submitted, then shoves that string into a request attribute... the then
forwards to a JSP, which basically does nothing but outputs the string and
returns the resultant page (the page in this case being nothing but the
string).
Imagine what the table sorting example would look like with this
approach... all the outputting of HTML would be removed, we would instead
do:
request.setAttribute(sortedPresidentsList, sortedPresidentsList);
...and we'd just do a normal forward to some JSP... in the JSP we might do:
% ArrayListhm = (ArrayList)request.getAttribute(sortedPresidentsList); %
table border=1 align=center cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0
tr
th onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=firstName');

When I talked about ...all the outputting of HTML would be removed..., I

And the first line of that JSP code should read:

html-el:form action=/chooseProfile focus=${focusField}
Now all you have to do is set a request Attribute named 'focusField' with
the name of the appropriate form element. I'm thinking... override
'validate' in your Action, call super.validate(...) and you'll have the
errors. Figuring out which one is first might be problematic though...

Interesting. But more modern languages are catching up, which is fun to watch. I find a lot of similarities to modern language ideas in Lisp, SmallTalk, etc. Here's a joke: A friend recently stole the last 100 pages of a huge, proprietary Lisp program, but all he got was the closing parentheses.

Re: ajax proj
I thought I would toss in a couple of philosophical points about the
HTML being created in the action. As we know, the technologies of
Servlets and Taglibs essentially mask the fact that HTML is created
other than on the page. I won't complete all my thinking on that.
Just tossing that into the mix. I do think that we should have an
MVC-like architecture but that it really should be expanded to be
clearly something that is compatible with a web structure. Ted has
provided some good thinking on this, and his offhand remarks about a
web-MVC in fact is the author of most of my thinking about web based
architectrues . Essentially, the event' like contacts that you find
in desktop MVC is not sensibly available in HTTP contexts. So, what
you do is try to make sure that each layer is coupled ONLY to the
prior layer and the next layer. These layers need not be piled but
can have varying sorts of connections, figure eights, loop-a-loops,
etc. How to do this with the given persistence scopes (request,
session, etc) and the needs to both persist and to kill data carrying
classes, is the trick for the VIEW layer, I think.
The other aspect that is not discussed above is the removal of the
complexity from the page. This is where JSP, Taglibs, etc., come
into the picture. And, I suspect, you two are talking about a
combination of this problem (keeping the page simple) and the previous
problem (using a reasonable architecture).
My thought, then, is this. The two distinct architectural differences
are very different and should be treated separately.. The later
issues are for efficiency of the human process. They are less
critical, except for the money, of course. The prior issues are for
efficience of the computer process, and they are absolutely critical.
Complications in the former are a pain but in the latter are never
bad, if effective. Make sense?

Basically view the entire server portion as one piece... at the end of
whatever it is that it does, it's returning HTML (whether it's a complete
page, as usual, or just a snippet, like with Ajax techniques usually).
Whether that HTML is written directly to response in an Action or a JSP
processes (which is writing out to response essentially remember), it's
the same thing.
The fifth example in my webapp from the article shows this, albeit very
simplistically... the Action just constructs a string from the parameters
submitted, then shoves that string into a request attribute... the then
forwards to a JSP, which basically does nothing but outputs the string and
returns the resultant page (the page in this case being nothing but the
string).
Imagine what the table sorting example would look like with this
approach... all the outputting of HTML would be removed, we would instead
do:
request.setAttribute(sortedPresidentsList, sortedPresidentsList);
...and we'd just do a normal forward to some JSP... in the JSP we might do:
% ArrayListhm = (ArrayList)request.getAttribute(sortedPresidentsList); %
table border=1 align=center cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0
tr
th onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=firstName');
onMouseOver=style.background='#c0c0c0';
onMouseOut=style.background='';First Name/th
th onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=middleName');
onMouseOver=style.background='#c0c0c0';
onMouseOut=style.background='';Middle Name/th
th onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=lastName');
onMouseOver=style.background='#c0c0c0';
onMouseOut=style.background='';Last Name/th
th
onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=firstYearInOffice');
onMouseOver=style.background='#c0c0c0';
onMouseOut=style.background='';First Year In Office/th
th
onClick=retrieveURL('example2RenderTable.do?sortField=lastYearInOffice');
onMouseOver=style.background='#c0c0c0';
onMouseOut=style.background='';Last Year In Office/th
/tr
%
for (Iterator it = sortedPresidentsList.iterator(); it.hasNext();) {
HashMap hm = (HashMap)it.next();
%
tr
td%=(String)hm.get(firstName)%/td
td%=(String)hm.get(middleName)%/td
td%=(String)hm.get(lastName)%/td
td%=(String)hm.get(firstYearInOffice)%/td
td%=(String)hm.get(lastYearInOffice)%/td
/tr
%
}
%
/table
Most people would tend to do with with taglibs, but you get the picture :)

I'm confused though, you can do that? In other words you can make an
XMLHttpRequest from one JSP that goes to an Action and in the Action you
can forward to another JSP to write the response and the original JSP
that called the XMLHttpRequest

Indeed it is. If you actually need to create XML in a response to an
XmlHttpRequest call from an Ajax client side gadget :-), here's an
approach using a JSP 2.0 page (in xml syntax) that uses JSTL to
iterate over a result set, and JSP expressions to pull out the data
(copied from the Shale Use Cases example app):
jsp:root version=2.0
xmlns:c=http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core;
xmlns:jsp=http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page;
jsp:directive.page
contentType=text/xml;charset=UTF-8/
categories
c:forEachvar=category
items=${lookup$listCategories.supportedCategories}
category
label${category.label}/label
value${category.value}/value
/category
/c:forEach
/categories
/jsp:root
The business logic that looks up the label/value pairs for the
response doesn't have a clue how it will actually be rendered, and
setting up a JSP page is much easier to author than building an XML
DOM in Java code.

Just a quick note/question about Craig's code below:
This line
label${category.label}/label
will output the value with not xml filtering, so some values will cause
incorrect xml to be generated.
You should use c:out tag to filter the ,,',, and characters to
output lt;, gt;, apos;, quot;, and amp;
labelc:out value=${category.label}//label
and the same for the value element

You can try to set a unlicked value in the reset function in the form.
When the click-box is clicked the unlicked value will be covered.

Subject: problem with checkbox values and map backed properties
hi,
i have the following problem with map backed properties:
i created a form bean with a map called inCampaignMap, and the getter and
setters being boolean getInCampaign(String key) and
setInCampaign(String
key, boolean value). internally, of course, the map value entries are of
type Boolean.
in my JSP i have the following code:
html:checkbox property=inCampaign(${campaign.id}) /
where ${campaign.id} indicates the key for the map.
this works fine if the checkbox is checked. in this case i can see that
the
setInCampaign() method is being called and that i get true for the
value.
if the checkbox is unchecked, the value is NOT set.
strange enough, i also can see from the html code that's generate that
value=on is always set, no matter if the checkbox is checked or not.
any ideas?
thanks in advance, kr,
guenther
