admin console and prompting

[Jarek Gawor <jg...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

While debugging the console testsuites I realized that the admin
console was no longer prompting when uninstalling a given module (or
stopping or restarting). I tracked down the problem to
ConfirmMessageTag.java where it was pointing to wrong locations for
Dojo resources. Now, I have a few of questions about this
ConfirmMessageTag that I'm hoping somebody will be able to answer:

1) Is it necessary for ConfirmMessageTag to use Dojo? Or at least can
we make it so that it still works (displays prompts) when Dojo is not
installed?

2) The ConfirmMessageTag injects a <style/> element into the page body
(within <body/>). But from what I can tell (and I checked this with
jslint) the <style/> elements only should appear within the <head/>
element. Things seems to work the way they are now but I'm wondering
if we should change this to be more valid.

Yes, the regular dialog boxes are also OK. I remembered that I had discussed
it with the patch contributor Jeff, our final result is that since more and
more portlets are using Dojo, why not use it :-)
I also wish the console would use Dojo to do some validation stuff in the
future.

If Dojo is only used to display a nice box in this case, I think we
should just get rid off it and use the regular dialog boxes.

I checked the codes of ConfirmMessageTag, its main purpose is to import Dojo
js file and some styles for showing Dojo box.
1. When dojo is not installed, I do not think the confirm box could work.
For the showConfirmMessage function uses some Dojo components.
2. The name seems not conformable with its function. I agree that we should
change it to be more valid.
