There's a nice way to do this... Use an AjaxDirectLink but set a custom ILinkRenderer on it that only outputs the value of the href attribute...
I recently added such a renderer in Tap4.1, was thinking it might be useful in tacos as well... https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tapestry/tapestry4/trunk/tapestry-contrib/src/java/org/apache/tapestry/contrib/link/RawURLLinkRenderer.java Also, the refresh component might be useful to you... http://tacos.sourceforge.net/components/Refresh.html Warner Onstine wrote: > Alright, I've been combing through the framework trying to figure out > how to do a javascript ajax call that will create a call to a listener > method, I think that I've found something, just trying to figure out > exactly how to use it. > > tacos.defaultLinkAction appears to be what I will need to use, I'm > just not sure of the best way to generate the arguments that go into > it. > > BTW - this would be something nice to add to the docs somewhere for > those of us who need to use the underlying framework to make calls > rather than relying on the components to do everything (they are nice, > but don't do all the ajax work most of us will need, at least IMO). > > -warner > > On 11/1/06, Warner Onstine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Excellent!
