Struts HTML tags

Struts HTML tags

You can create Struts HTML tags from the Struts HTML Tags drawer. These tags are used to create Struts input forms, as well as other tags generally useful in the creation of HTML-based user interfaces. The output is HTML 4.01 compliant or XHTML 1.0 when in XHTML mode.

When you are editing a Struts JSP page in Page Designer, you can open the Struts HTML Tags drawer on the palette and add to the page any of the elements that are listed in the table below.
The tags are listed in alphabetical order. Some tags may be hidden on the palette. To show a hidden tag in the palette, right-click the tags drawer and select
Customize. Clear the
Hide check box for each component that you want to display on the palette.
Each tag has a number of attributes you can set by using the Properties view of the tag. For an alphabetical listing and description of all the attributes, refer to the related reference. To look up attributes for which you want additional detail, use the Attribute listings while working with the Properties view of the tag.
Each tag has an
html prefix. For example,
base is html:base.
