Re: [appfuse-user] Recomended Pratice (Struts2 Dojo)

Thomas, once you rename the action mappings you don't have to extract the struts content... just get rid of the StaticFilter in the web.xml and it should work with the standard struts2 ajax tags...

Cheers...

Here's an issue for the datepicker - feel free to re-open it or add to

FWIW, we still include Matt Kruse's _javascript_ calendar (in
scripts/calendar.js).

http://www.mattkruse.com/_javascript_/calendarpopup/

We could change to use JSCalendar from
http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar.  This is what most web
frameworks use, unless they're Apache, which doesn't allow an LGPL
library.
