Xhtml tag usage question
I tried to insert the xhtml tag in my pages, but the only way I found is
to insert it in each tile that composes my page. It seems it is not
sufficient to put it in the template file, or in the page using the
template. Is there a better approach ?
Any help is appreciated
Renato

Subject: Re: Xhtml tag usage question
Unfortunately it saves the xhtml 'flag' in page scope so there isn't
much you can do about it.
Background: BaseHandlerTag has an isXhtml() method which calls the
TagUtils.isXhtml() method which checks the xhtml 'flag' in page scope.
I did think a solution would be to override the TagUtils.isXhtml()
method to either always return 'true' or check a flag in request scope
(which you would have to set some way) - but unfortunately the instance
variable for TagUtils is both private and final - so theres no way to
extend and implement your own custom TagUtils version in 'vanilla'
struts. If you build your own version of struts, you could change
TagUtils itself, so maybe thats an option for you - but then every time
you take a new struts version you have to re-implement your change.
Another alternative is to extend the struts tags to create 'xhtml'
versions - all you would have to do is override the isXhtml() method
there. For example
public class XhtmlTextTag extends TextTag
public XhtmlTextTag () {
super();
}
protected boolean isXhtml() {
return true;
}
}
So I think you have a few options:
- put the <html:xhtml> tag in every jsp
- build your own version of struts and change TagUtils
- extend the struts tags to create xhtml versions
Personally, I would go with <html:xhtml> for now and try to get struts
changed so that either the scope of the xhtml flag can be customized or
TagUtils can be extended and overriden.
