Question

I have this jsp :

<div id="searchGrid">
    <table id="list" class="scroll"></table>
    <div id="pager" class="scroll" style="text-align:center;"></div>
</div>
<s:hidden id="hdnFonction" value="<s:property value='fonction'/>" />
<h1><s:property value='fonction'/></h1>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
        var fn = window[$("#hdnFonction").val()];

        alert($("#hdnFonction").val());

        fn();
    });
</script>

so between h1 tags I have the right value (the string name of a function)

but in the alert box I have the struts2 ‘property’ tag like the struts tag is interpreted after the document ready… which would be strange no ?

Answer 1

You can’t nest Struts2 tags inside of one another like that, so the <s:property> tag is being parsed as text, rather than as a Struts2 tag.

You’ll have to store the value of <s:property value="fonction"/> into a scripting variable, and then use that as the value in your <s:hidden> tag.
