I looked at html:link, and it seems to require using a Map class to pass
parameters to the link. Seems like a lot of setup, and scriplet code (which
I am not crazy about) just to generate
/school/maintenance.jsp?schoolId=223&context=ready. Is there an easier way
to do this?
Here is how I imagine the code would look like with the current STRUTS
html:link tag:
<bean:define id="schoolId" name="school" property="id"/>
<bean:define id="contextMode" name="school" property="context"/>
<%
Map map = new HashMap();
map.put("schoolId", schoolId);
map.put("context", contextMode);
%>
<html:link href="/school/maintenance.jsp" name="map" />
I would rather see syntax like this:
<html:link href="/school/maintenance.jsp">
<html:linkParam id="schoolId" name="school" property="id"/>
<html:linkParam id="context" name="school" property="context"/>
</html>
The map, is a good feature, but it's TOO dynamic in this case. I could
create my own tag, but I thought I would ask around before re-inventing the
wheel.
Thanks.
