VelocityTools 1.1 does not support tool configuration, i think. Back
then, the xhtml setting was for the whole toolbox only; you couldn't
set it on a per-tool basis:
<toolbox>
<xhtml>true</xhtml>
<tool>
<key>link</key>
....
</toolbox>
Tools 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 all support individual tool parameters:
<tool>
<key>link</key>
<scope>request</scope>
<class>org.apache.velocity.tools.struts.StrutsLinkTool</class>
<parameter name="foo" value="bar"/>
</tool>
However, i just double-checked and the LinkTool still expects the
xhtml setting to be global in all 1.x versions. So, you can't
actually use parameters for that particular setting.
And yes, Tools 2 makes all such things much easier. :)
