zhouyanming commented on WW-4166:
---------------------------------

class and style should exclude from dynamic attributes.

{code:xml}
<@s.textfield label="%{getText('username')}" name="username" class="required span2" style="width:150px;"/>
{code}
will render
{code:xml}
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" class="required span2" style="width:150px;" style="width:150px;" class="class java.util.HashMap"/>
{code}

> In building a JSP, and working on web related things outside of the Java environment, there are lots of tags which all receive the "class" attribute. The Struts developer must _remember_ to call the attribute cssClass instead. Typing muscle memory drives me to half of the time typing "class" instead, which leads to HTML which reads, 'class="class java.util.HashMap"'
> Why not just allow "class" like the rest of the HTML world? Why do we need to be different? I have a billion things to remember when web developing, this shouldn't be one of them.
> We don't even have to to deprecate or obsolete cssClass, just also allow "class"... please!
