Hi Jacob, I Think you have to work on a model that represents better your column... With the the For Component, and a little of polymorphism applied to components and its models you can do It easily. I don't think you have to work with AbstractComponent, RenderBody, or that kind of thing... A tip... always try to work with components hierarchy... When you work with Tapestry, think on Tapestry approach... the things almost are simpler than you think... ;)

Hi, I am pritty new to tapestry and I am working with tapestry 4.0.2. I have a question about custom components. I have a side column in my application that has a few lines of html and then it should contain one or many components depending on where in the application I use it. my question is: How do I do this? My html file for left column look like this : <html> <body jwcid="$content$"> <link href="/default/css/leftcolumn.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <div id="leftColumn"> <div id="innerLeftColumn"> <!-- Login Component --> <!-- Article list component --> </div> </div> </body> </html> Do I use a abstractComponent and use the renderComponent(IMarkupWriter writer, IRequestCycle cycle) and can the renderBody(writer, cycle) render only one or many components? Thank you for your patience with trivial questions and for any suggestions on how to solve my problems Jacob -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Components-containing-dynamic-number-of-component-tf2340643.html#a6514321 Sent from the Tapestry - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
