How to render HTML in Form Tag Label?

2010-06-23 Thread David Lu


Hi All,

As part of a registration form, I want to have a checkbox that
lets the user agree to some terms:

( ) I agree to the _Terms of Service_

Where _Terms of Service_ should be a link to another page
with some legal mumbo jumbo.

The obvious code is:




Unfortunately the HTML for  is encoded and rendered as code,
rather than as HTML:

( ) I agree to the Terms of Service

Viewing the source shows that < and > have been changed to
< and >, respectively.

Is there a way to tell struts not to use the label text as-is?

Re: Validating mutltiple uploads in a single action

2010-06-23 Thread Burton Rhodes
I think it would best to validate the type in a 'validate' function
and make your action implement Validateable.  It will give you greater
control on the action/field errors that you present to the end user as
well.

Thanks,
Burton

Re: Modify JSON Format?

Hi,

I don't think the plugin has any option like that.  But, even if you
manage to do that how will you ensure that the order of data  
returned will

match the order
of grid columns on the client?

You have two options:
1. Use a List of List on your action class itself so that the order is
preserved.  The json plugin serialized an Iterable into a JSON array  
and a

bean to { name: value,. } structure. So you will end up having the
array of array in your JSON as well.

2. Post process the JSON data on your ajax callback function before
feeding it to the table. (You also have the order available on  
client from

the table declaration, so it should be easy. )

Modify JSON Format?



Hi,

I am using JSON plugin to return data to JQuery DataTable, but format
is not compatible with Datatable plugin. I have a collection with a
getter function on my struts2 action that is annotated with @JSON
annotation.  The action returns an array of objects, such as:

{"aaData":[",{"age":2,"breed":"Unkown","gender":"Female","id": 
2,"name":"Snowflake

2"}, ...}

when what I really wany is an array of arrays:

aaData: [
[ 2, Unknown, Female, 2, Snowflake 2 ],
[ ...] ]

As I understand it, both forms of the notation are valid. Is there any
way to configure the plug in to modify the style/format of JSON to
render the array of arrays without hand rolling my own function to
return the data in a string?

Using struts 2.1.8.1

Thank you.

If u have used spring in ur application then u can use the init-method.  Here 
is how it works

You can configure your war to load the spring upon app start-up.  The init 
method will auomatically get invoked.

That probably means that your action has a getSession() method.  Since 
you may use that view layer page from a different action, or you may 
want to get something from the session when something other than your 
action is on top of the value stack, I'd suggest using the # notation.

Re: Page composition strategy

2010-06-23 Thread Alex Rodriguez Lopez
BTW, any of those two are easily integrated into S2 as plugins (in fact 
already bundled with S2 distribution, just add the jars):


http://struts.apache.org/2.1.8.1/docs/tiles-plugin.html
http://struts.apache.org/2.1.8.1/docs/sitemesh-plugin.html



I've been using Tiles and always found it confusing a little bit, now
that I'm starting to test Sitemesh my vote would be for this last one.
They accomplish the same thing, only Tiles is like saying each time "my
page is made up of this, this and this". Sitemesh is more about taking a
piece of a page and decorate it into a full page (more like
"intercepting" or filtering).



Allow me to throw in a vote for Sitemesh. I've never used Tiles, so I
can't directly compare the two, but Sitemesh is quite easy to use and
incredibly powerful for this sort of thing. You define it as a
servlet filter in your project, and it adds decoration to the requests
that come through. The JSPs never even have to know that they're
being decorated in the first place!

Currently I'm using inclusion and all my JSPs share the same structure:

C. 'include' coda content: right-column, footer.

I don't like this approach and I'm thinking about alternatives; I

if Struts2 can help with this:

i. Use the very same JSP template for all requests. That template would
include specific content by calling the corresponding segment. This
would involve a default result pointing to this JSP template and some
means of specifying the name of the specific segment that will be
invoked from inside the main template.

ii. Use result pages as segments and render only specific content.
Later
on, some interceptor or servlet filter would include prelude and
coda in
the output stream.

1. Can you recommend the best practice for page composition in Struts2?
2. Can I use Struts2 for implementing above mentioned strategies i. and
ii.? How?
