Tiles + WebWork
I'd like to use Tiles with WebWork for reasons outlined on my blog: http://raibledesigns.com/page/rd?entry=large_sites_powered_by_java I'm able to get the Tiles tag library to work, because it's essentially JSPs loading other JSPs at that point. Creating a tiles-config.xml file is a much better solution IMO - then you don't need to create JSP-loading JSPs. I tried to get WebWork + Tiles working (using a nightly build), but no dice. The TilesFilter doesn't seem to load the definitions, so I tried using both the TilesServlet and the TilesFilter. TilesFilter is mapped to *.tile and all my view names in xwork.xml map to viewname.tile. I'm guessing the problem is WebWork communicating the name of the tiles definition to the filter. Is it possible to integrate these two frameworks? Thanks, Matt - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [OT] looking for salary surveys
In Denver, the full-time rates vary from around $60K year to $100K. It's pretty tough to find the $100/year jobs, and most average in the 80s-90s for senior developers. For Contractors, the sky's the limit, but most range from $45/hour (junior developers) to $90/hour. Again, senior developers get in the 80s (per hour).

Struts-Shale is an entirely different product, something like an incipient version of Tapestry, which has nothing in common with Struts except it too is a framework.

While you may be correct in BaTien's intentions, he does mention a worthwhile project: Spring Web Flow. This is a web flow (wizard) framework that was developed on top of Struts initially and can very much be used with Struts. http://forum.springframework.org/viewtopic.php?t=4604 There is a sample application (BirthDate) in Spring's CVS and it will be a part of a PR2 release on Sunday night.

Of course, if you're talking about ActionServlet, it will get reloaded again on the next request, but that will cause your init() method to run again -- wasting a whole bunch of time in many cases. A ServletContextListener, on the other hand, guarantees that contextInitialized() will get called at startup time (before any requests have been processed), and contextDestroyed() will get called at shutdown time (after the last request), no matter what happens in between. Craig Craig, Thanks for the information about ServletContextListener. But I wonder what you do to reload updated data from database without restarting using ServletContextListener. Have another action to call it reload() like Matt Riable said? Just in case you're interested in some code: StartupListener: http://tinyurl.com/3wvk9 ReloadAction: http://tinyurl.com/6webx Note that my StartupListener extends Spring's ContextLoaderListener.

time validation mask (hh:mm)
I'm trying to validate that the proper format has been used to enter a 24 hour time. I'll admit I'm not a regex expert, but I thought the following would work. Actually, I got it from a regex expert friend, so I'm just assuming it should work. time ((?:0?[0-9]|1[0-9]|2[0-3]):[0-5][0-9]) However, this seems to allow alpha-numerics (i.e. 2:00p or 2:00x), when I only want digits in the first two places, followed by a colon, followed by two more digits. 24:59. If course, it'd be nice if users could enter 1:24 too, but that's not a requirement. Thanks, Matt - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
