yet more TagLibs problems
As jato2 still doesn't know about some HTML4 tags like <label>
ex:
<label><input type="radio" ... />TheLabel</label>
if you click on "TheLabel", it clicks on the radio button, like every
other GUI
I thought I would be able use the <label for=""> as a workaround
<input type="radio" name="choice" id="choice1" /> <label
for="choice1">TheLabel</label>
BUT despite it generates several tags, <jato:radioButtons> sets the id
attribute to the same value for every tag :< This not only defeats my
workaround but also id main purpose to uniquely identity elements.
We really need a generic mechanism to specify attributes when jato tags
generate multiple HTML tags.
I can still change the generated tags in endDisplay but it be neat if
the 201 taglib was a little bit more XHTML compliant and savvy ;)

That's what I'm doing right now for the WML tags. But I was planning on
using the standard tags for mainstream HTML ;)
May you elaborate a little bit on complementary tags vs components ?

Give me until monday and I'll have what you "ask" for (WML/XHTML
Basic/Mobile as well as ViewBean).
Following Todd advices,
for the former, I am having new tags to render the same components. I
may need to write new components but I'm not sure yet.
for the latter, 1 pagelet per "rendering" type with an inner
ContainerView when the logic is different ; the pagelet tags being
surrounded by a homemade tag that "activates" the pagelet based on the
client type. A specialized tag seems better than <jato:content> as the
logic is wired.
Further step would be to make the tags client aware but I'm not sure
yet it is the right thing to do. Are tags "allowed" to store data in
the session (to avoid computing client type ever and ever) ?

No, I'm not saying it worked with 121 and not with 20. I mentioned 121
as I have the source for that (would I decompile 2.0 sources, NO ;)
I am rewriting the visual tags extending the 20 classes as I need
compliant classes and this now works with WAP2 phones.
1. end tags with no content with "/>"
2. multiple and selected become multiple="multiple" &
selected="selected"
3. remove "name" from <form
4. surround the 2 ><input "hidden"> added by <form with ><div></div> as
<form elements as blocks, not form-inline
This still doesn't fix the dot problem for WML1x. I tried a servlet
filter but I got troubles when altering the result of the GET. It works
fine on a "normal" servlet but as jato servlets forward the rendering
to a jsp, oc4j gave me an error and s1as ignores the whole thing.
I plan to have a session.attribute that tells me if some kind of trick
should be done (condition = Nokia-WAP-Gateway)
1. in the visual tags, replace "_" by "." in field.getQualifiedName()
2. in the servlet filter, in a PUT, replace _ by .
The "good" news is that AOL wap site triggers an error from the current
gateways. As it was working 3 weeks ago, I bet they installed a brand
new release ;)
-
One side question : a lof of WAP (1 and 2) products require ><?xml and
DOCTYPE to be the first and second lines of the page (that is no empy
lines before and in between). I solved this by having
<<a href="/group/SunONE-JATO/post?protectID=073229104237229198">%@p...</a> info="SearchRoad" language="java"%>
<<a href="/group/SunONE-JATO/post?protectID=073229114237229153036171">%@t...< /a> uri="/WEB-INF/jato.tld" prefix="jato"%>
<jato:useViewBean className="caremonger.module1.SearchRoadViewBean">
<?xml version="1.0"
on the same line which is UGLY and prone to errors if somebody forgets
about this. Is there a better way to ask the jsp engine to ignore
rendering up to a certain point ?
