I use Struts Menu. It pulls text from a config file and renders a tabbed menu at the top of my page with CSS. It doesn't render submit buttons, it renders hyperlinks. "Cannot be done" really isn't in my vocabulary-- anything it possible given enough time, money and motivation. ;) But in this case, the first issue that comes to mind is that the tabbed menus are in a separate Tile from the one that contains the <html-el:form> tags. For submit buttons to work, they'd have to be *within* the form tags, and AFAIK you can't split the form across multiple Tiles. While I appreciate that you've spent a lot of time working on your elegant solution, in this case the OP doesn't even appear to need JavaScript *or* a form, much less buttons on it. I'm going to bow out of this now-- you have your solution, I have mine, both of them work, and the OP can choose one of the many ideas that have been thrown out there and be on his way. -- Wendy Smoak --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
