What, specifically, is it that you are trying to accomplish by doing getting such access? It seems that you might be trying to do something the wrong way...

Hi Jonathan,

Having had a closer look, I think that method will only return the bindings
of the component rather than the bindings of each dynamic element.  I'll
take a look at it more closely - any other suggestions?

Regards,
Dave.


Jonathan,

Thanks for that - I should have thought of looking there, still having a
little trouble finding my way around WO.  I think that's exactly what I was
looking for - what I was wondering is, will WO complain if I add a binding
to each Dynamic Object called, for example, myName and bind the name I want
it to have to that?  Like, myName="header".  I will try it and see, if it
does not complain about 'nonsensical' bindings, I think this will solve my
problem.

Cheers!
Dave.

I need to access the name of the element, but from other posts I have seen
apparently that is not possible.  So I was wondering if I could bind an
internal name of my own to a custom binding for each element so that I could
access it at runtime.  I need to lookup some data in the db based on this
name.

I don't fully understand what you're trying to accomplish, but I want to ensure you know about this method:

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Reference/API/com/webo
bjects/appserver/WOComponent.html#bindingKeys()>

I think this will enable you to discover all of a component's bindings at
runtime.
