Check out the documentation on the activate and passivate component events.
You can think of passivate and activate as a kind of very lightweight persistent storage, where the values are stored positionally in the render URL. I'm still thinking about the relationship between PageLink component and the LinkFactory. Currently, PageLink doesn't have a context parameter, and the context if any is collected by triggering the passivate event on the page (this is inside LinkFactoryImpl). That's great if the target page knows what its context should be, but could involve repeatedly setting the value just before the PageLink renders. I'm thinking that PageLink should support a context parameter that bypasses the target page's passivate event. This puts some responsibility on the programmer to ensure that any such use of PageLink provides the correct context that will be needed by the target page's activate event handler.

I'm interested in knowing the answer to this, as well. In fact, to take it one step further: Instead of parameters: http://www.mysite.com/view?country=spain http://www.mysite.com/view?country=usa http://www.mysite.com/view?country=france And instead of including the page name: http://www.mysite.com/view/spain http://www.mysite.com/view/usa http://www.mysite.com/view/france I'd like to have something like: http://www.mysite.com/spain http://www.mysite.com/usa http://www.mysite.com/france On 2/15/07, Dennis Kempin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am experimenting with the tapestry snapshot version and want to write a > little page class that takes an integer parameter to specify an content id > to show.
