Tapestry with Mobile Phones

[Manri Offermann <ta...@eastbeam.co.jp>]

Hello Mailing List!


I am working on a webapp for japanese mobile phones. There are 3 major 
mobile phone providers in Japan and the devices support a subset or modified 
version of HTML for each provider. Some newer devices support XHTML-Mobile.

Now the problem is that older devices don't understand tags which are 
properly closed - for example:

<br />
<hr />

for older devices I have to remove the closing tag:

<br>
<hr>


Even if it is a pain I thought of a solution like this;

<br jwcid="MyComponent" />
<hr jwcid="MyComponent" />


MyComponent depending on the Mobile Device renders the tag with or without a 
closing tag.


Now to my question.

How can I find out the element name in which I specified my Component?

How does MyComponent know whether the element name is "br" or "hr"?



Thanks for any help

Couldn't you just add a parameter to your component? I.e.
 <br jwcid="MyComponent" type="br" />
<hr jwcid="MyComponent" type="hr"/>
