Re: T5 - HTML Templating
Tapestry 5 (as of 5.0.3) supports two forms of templating:
<span t:id="foo" t:type="bar" ...>
</span>
and
<t:bar t:id="foo"> ...
</t:bar>
The former version is more cluttered, but more Web designer friendly.
The latter version reads "nicer" for coders who don't care about Web
designer friendly.
You are, of course, free to mix and match. This is one of the few
areas in Tapestry where I think it is important to leave choice to the
user. Like curly braces in Java code, some people are emphatically in
one camp, or in the other. So be it.
A component can "know" the tag used to represent it in the template;
some components (such as If and Loop) automatically adapt ...
mimicking the tag and rendering informal parameters.
Note that 5.0.2 had a different variant, <t:comp>, which has been
removed in favor of form #2.
