Class TextTag

java.lang.Object
  javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.SimpleTagSupport
      nl.gx.webmanager.taglib.TextTag

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.JspTag, javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.SimpleTag

public class TextTag
extends javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.SimpleTagSupport

Implements the wm:text tag. This tag looks up the text value defined for a language label as configured in GX Webmanager. The configuration can be found in the menu 'Configure > Language Labels' in the WM editor environment. If the var attribute is set, the result is bound to this variable, else the result of the lookup is printed.
Example of usage:

 < wm:text var="submitText" label="wm_language.form_submit" />
 < input type="submit" name="${submitText}" />
 

In the example above the text defined for the label "wm_language.form_submit" is retrieved for the current language. A button using this text is displayed. When the label does not exist, a new label is created automatically with the same name. The new label can only consist of the following characters:

 [0-9,a-z,A-Z,-,_]
