Is it possible to have custom tags that can have both child elements and
attributes? I mean that in some cases it would be more elegant to use
elements instead of attributes:
<bean:message key="text.welcome">
<arg0><bean:write name="un" property="firstname"/></arg0>
<arg1><bean:write name="un" property="firstname"/></arg1>
</bean:message>
or:
<bean:message>
<key>text.welcome</key>
<arg0><bean:write name="un" property="firstname"/></arg0>
<arg1><bean:write name="un" property="firstname"/></arg1>
</bean:message>
instead of this:
<bean:message key="text.welcome"
arg0="<% = un.firstname %>"
arg1="<% = un.lastname %>"
</bean:message>
Or it would be even more flexible if you could use both of them (at the same
time).
This was just an example and at least I have found many places where I'd
like to
use child elements instead of attributes.
Or is it just me who thinks that those runtime expressions are pretty ugly?
