Link tag and jsp expressions

[Marcus Andersson <ma...@active-tv.com>]

Hello

I want to the following:
<html:link
page="/do/showprojectdetails?<%=project.getProjectId()%>"><%=project.getName
()%></html:link>

When this is executed the following output is generated:
<a
href="[context]/do/showprojectdetails?<%=project.getProjectId()%>">TheProjec
tName</a>

This is of course wrong, I want the project id to be written to the query
string in the link url. What is wrong or what should I do instead?

/Marcus

DISCLAIMER: I have never done this, but I have seen it explained on this
list enough times that I feel that I understand it well enough to respond.

Your problem is that the scriplet is only a portion of the attribute, and is
therefore not being interpreted. You need to do it like this:  page='<%=
"/do/showprojectdetails?" + project.getProjectId()
%>'><%=project.getName()%>

!'m assuming that you really do want just a value following the '?' and not
the typical 'XXX=YYY'. Otherwias you probably need to use paramName and
paramValue as someone else suggested.

Hope this was useful,
Dave Derry
