This sounds like a terrible idea. Why not use a WORepetition and some custom components? What are you trying to do that can't be done that way?

Hi,

I want to be able to generate HTML code from a WOComponent programmatically and insert the response into a String (to be display into a parent component).

I tried something like this :

public class ParentComponent extends WOComponent {

	//A WOString will display the result
	public String getText()
	{
		while ( iNeedMoreSubcomponent )
		{
			String htmlFromSubComponent = generateHTMLOfSubcomponent();

... code where I insert the result of the sub component into my text ...
}
return text;
}


//This sub component will contain component action and the result will be inserted into the "text"...
public String generateHTMLOfSubcomponent()
{
WOComponent subComponent = pageWithName("SubComponent");
String chaineHTML = resultAjax.generateResponse().contentString();


			return chaineHTML;
	}

}

But the problem with this example is the value of context().page() (was ParentComponent), who is replaced by the SubComponent (in my case this will be a problem). If I create a new Context for the sub component, I will lost my session.

Is there a way to do this or I'm better to change strategy?

Thanks in advance.

Jacky
