Question

I’ve been looking but can’t find the the documentation:

Is there a way to have a page render a response without the wrapping HTML elements and just print whatever is provided in the body of the tml or alternatively whatever is set in MarkupWriter.write during @BeginRender?

I need a page that does some server side processing and returns pure javascript for an external application to request.

If that is impossible, is it possible to expose the tapestry Ioc to a servlet in the same app?

Thanks, p.

Sorry ponzao, but i found a better solution courtesy of Thiago on the tapestry mail list:

public class MyPage
{
    StreamResponse onActivate()
    {
        return new TextStreamResponse("text/plain", "some text");
    }
}

this way you don’t need to revert to the servlet API and don’t need a tml.
