Hi!
I'm trying to use dynamic webobject tags in WOBuilder to set up HTML
tag attributes.
e.g.
<ul class='style1 <webobject name="String1"></webobject>'>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
where
String1: WOString {
value = "style2";
}
I can happily add levels of tag nesting here, such as WOConditionals.
It seems to want outermost single quotes, and double quotes at all
levels inside.
So far, so good - works OK. I do have problems if I split up the
lines with CRs, though this should be whitespace-friendly.
However if I try to reformat the page using CTRL-A, CTRL-R (or
Apple-A, Apple-R on Mac), it tends to chuck out part or all of these
attributes.
Furthermore, if I add further WOStrings, WOConditionals, etc elsewhere
in the component, the new ones often overwrite the existing ones used
in the attributes.
In short, it looks like WOBuilder isn't geared up for coping with WO
tags used in attributes.
No it's not really.
Anyone else having a problem here? Any workarounds or fixes in sight?
You might be able to achieve what you are looking for by using a
combination of WOGenericContainers and WOGenericElements.
Alternately, I mentally mark those components as being fragile, and
only edit them in source view or using an alternate (text) editor.
This is using WOBuilder Version 5.3.1 (680) on OS/X.
This is nothing new.
