Re: [S2] Question on inherited Actions and Results

Re: HELP:I've got a new problem when I tried to use struts-menu in my Tiles using display-tag.
You are not going to adjust the scope of a css file, but you will have
to change your HTML to give the browser some means of telling your two
tables apart, and then adjust your css accordingly. Most often, this
is done by putting a class on the html, e.g. .
Then, your css could be:
td.menuClass {this style would only be applied to the menu td}
td.displayTagClass {this style would only be applied to the display tag td}
I have not used either Struts-Menu or DisplayTag, so I do not know if
you can specify css classes to use in the HTML they generate. I am
guessing that you can, but, even if you cannot, you can still apply
css to precise areas by containing them in other elements, and writing
your css accordingly. Here is a quick example:
table { font-family:arial,helvetica}
#foo table { color:red}
#bar table { color:green}
I am red arial
I am green arial
In this page, all tables are arial,hevetica, but only tables inside
the "foo" element are red, and only tables inside the "bar" element
are green. You have to alter your HTML to give css knoweldge of where
to apply rules, and then change your css in ways like these so that
they only apply to the areas of the page that you need. There are
other methods, as well, but a full discussion of css inheritance is
beyond the scope of this list, and probably my abilities as well :)
Here is a good link as a starting point:

Re: HELP:I've got a new problem when I tried to use struts-menu in my Tiles using display-tag.
I do not use either Struts-Menu or DisplayTag, but, looking at your screen shot, it looks like both your table and your menu elements may have the same type of outline. Check your css -- it may be that your css applies the same styles (most likely some manner of border style) to elements in both areas. If that is the case, you just need to make your css rules more specific, so that they apply to the table, but not the menus. hth, Greg On 5/20/06, M.Liang Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Pity to notice you that I give up struts-menu to ensure the display-tag can display properly.

Re: Spanish date and time
Assuming you are using JSP or some other view technology that supports
jstl tags, take a look at the jstl fmt tag library:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/JSTL6.html
In addition to internationalizing messages, it also contains tags to
format numbers and dates according to your locale. To help get you
started, here is a quick example:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt"; prefix="fmt"%>
<%
// This would be the date coming from your servlet
request.setAttribute("now", new java.util.Date());
%>
This would output the long style date in whatever locale you are using
in your application, e.g. March 29, 2006 for US-English, 29 de marzo
de 2006 for Spanish.
You could use at the outset of that page
to set a generic Spanish locale on that page only, but you probably
already are using some form of localization in other parts of your
application, and you would be better served getting the Locale from
there. There are also more formatting options than just "long" -- you
can find the javadoc-style tag library documentation at:
http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jstl/1.1/docs/tlddocs/index.html

Re: Seeking advice image resizing
You could use Sun's Java Advanced Imaging, as well. http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai/ JAI gives you about everything you could need to manipulate many formats of bitmap images, though the API seems daunting at first. I found one article that provides a good discussion and examples of wrapping common functions like resizing in a utility class.

Unless I am misunderstanding what you are looking for, that is what
the arg0-arg4 attributes are for, to insert up to 5 parametric
replacements.
In case I have goofed, check the docs at:
http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-bean.html#message
If you prefer to use JSTL over struts tags when possible, the JSTL
equivalent is the tag.

Re: customized webs and advanced localization
It sounds like your problem is: 1) You want to include files in a way that chooses the best match, given a user's language, much like the proper ResourceBundle is discovered. 2) You have another property in play, not just standard language/country/variant. Since, this seems mostly a presentation issue, I would not expect a Struts-specific feature to handle this; this seems like a candidate for a taglib (if you are using JSP.) You can find the rules that ResourceBundles use for searching in the javadocs of the ResourceBundle class. You could make a taglib that searches for files based on those rules (and adding some for your extra properties), and includes the file that best matches. Alternatively, since it sounds like you are happy with Cocoon, perhaps you can mix the two together: http://struts.sourceforge.net/struts-cocoon/index.html And use Struts as a controller, and the Cocoon pipeline as your presentation framework.

You will want to read up on the Validator framework. When you use the Validator, you configure rules about your form in an XML file. Struts will use those rules to perform server-side validation, but, for many basic types of validation, Struts can also (optionally) emit the proper javascript for client-side validation. You can still write your own javascript, if you need to or want to, but for many validation tasks -- including the "can contains numbers only" scenario you mentioned -- Struts will do it for you. You can find a HOWTO guide on the Validator on the Struts site here: http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/dev_validator.html Also, I believe the Struts distribution ships with a validator example. -Greg - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: html tags in resource bundle
One possibility would be to create a forward (local or global) for the
Action you wish to link, and then, when you save ActionMessages,
create the link, and then pass it as a parametric replacement to the
message.
1) in struts-config.xml, create a forward that maps to the action link
you want in your message, e.g. .
2) Set your message to have another replacement, like:
auditapp.login.duplicate.user.error=A user with email address: {0}
already exists. If that is your email address, please use that email
address as your login along with the password you
were supplied.
3) In your Action, obtain the path of the forward, get its path, and
place it in the message. Using your code as a basis:
catch(DuplicateUserException dupEx){
log.error("Caught DuplicateUserException in execute of
AuditAppRegistrationAction");
// This is the link created from the forward you defined in step 1
String replacementLink =
mapping.findForward("appRegisterLoginForward").getPath();
super.saveMessage(request, "auditapp.login.duplicate.user.error",
(String)f.get("email"), replacementLink);
return mapping.getInputForward();
}
This way, the creation and rewriting of the link itself is handled by
normal struts mechanisms, and you can manage the links in your
struts-config.xml file.
