Hello, Perhaps the subject is not correct, so I try to explain what I need. Consider that I have a Tapestry component A. I expect to have multiple instances of this component on a page (instantiated in different places).
This component needs some javascript to support it. The javascript side consists of few global library methods shared by all instances of component, BUT called with different sets of parameters by different instances of component A. (1) I want to be able to attach a script to my component in such a way that "library" javascript methods are created only once per page regardless of how many instances of component I am creating. (2) I realize that I could define a separate script component on the page with all my global functions. Nevertheless it has a problem that I should always remember to append this script component whenever I am using component A on any given page and remove it whenever I do not need it anymore. Also it will cause problems if I nest component A inside other components, etc. I cannot see a simple way to do it presently - correct me if I am wrong. I believe it should be simple to implement in Tapestry. Basically one has to be able to define a singleton script - inserted into any given page only once regardless of how many times script tag is used in nested components. What about adding an extra parameter to the script component? Parameter = singleton Type = boolean Required = no I know that this is what image preload is doing presently, but I believe it is an internal feature of Tapestry rather then component.
