Folks, Want to say thanks for the help from engineers... I am receiving output now on my gallery widget... and keepin pluggin away... looks promising.
I have tried to render raw markup in what one could call the page and perform property de-referencing or specify pojo and invoke method with dot notation. I am trying to do some arithmetic... on the page or what could be called markup space... and I appear to be getting the expression I specified instead of the actual value or result of the arithmetic expression. Here is a table row of my gallery header <td colspan="0"> <div style="font-weight:bold; text-align: center;"> <Label/> <t:outputRaw value="${cursor} + 1"/> <Label> to </Label> <t:if test="cursor"> <t:outputRaw value="${cursor} + min(collection.size,itemsPerPage) "/> <p:else> <t:outputRaw value="${cursor} + min(collection.size,itemsPerPage) "/> </p:else> </t:if> <Label> of </Label> <Label>collection.size</Label> <Label/> </div> </td> all this table data element does is render something like... "1 to 10 of 50" which seems like a typical metric for autopaging objects in a gallery. And I am using arithmetic operations as specified above. I know Thiago is going to slam me for not putting this in the JAVA module... Am I compelled to put this in the JAVA... ? or should arithmetic operations be supported in the page space for TAP-5 Thanks for your confirmation. kcola...@live.com
