I'm not sure what you mean by a theme repository, but documentation on customizing Struts 2 themes and templates is here: http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/themes-and-templates.html For simple tweaks like changing colours, you can use plain ol' CSS. For more extensive changes, you'll want a customized theme. L. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Juan,
The rendering of the buttons is based on the theme template. The templates
can be found in the Struts source in:
/core/src/main/resources/template
There are a few directories there. I believe S2 defaults to the xhtml theme.
I have extended the xhtml theme extensively to do variable multi-column
layouts. It took some work, and at the time I thought it was hard, but in
retrospect it wasn't that bad.
Take a look at the template that backs s:textfield first. It's text.ftl in
the xhtml directory. It's real short:
#include /${parameters.templateDir}/${parameters.theme}/controlheader.ftl
/
#include /${parameters.templateDir}/simple/text.ftl /
#include /${parameters.templateDir}/xhtml/controlfooter.ftl /
It includes a controlheader, the simple text.ftl template, then a
controlfooter.
The control header and footer is where the table wrapping happens and the
simple/text.ftl is where the actual input element is generated from.
Just go through it a piece at a time.
I have yet to use a radio button group, but I think the template to start
with is radiomap.ftl.
When going through this just remember to follow the includes.
Good luck,
Mark

The templates can be found in the Struts source in: /core/src/main/resources/template Forgot to mention if you want to hack on these do the following: 1. In WEB-INF/classes/ make a template directory. 2. Copy the xhtml, and simple directories from the Struts distribution to that directory. 3. in WEB-INF/classes/template make a directory for your own theme, such as WEB-INF/class/template/mytheme/. You'll put any template you want to override in this directory. 4. Optionally, although I'd highly recommend it, copy the contents of the xhtml theme to your theme directory so you have something to hack on. 5. Hack away and see how it works.
