Renders an HTML <textarea> tag.
Attributes |
accessKey |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The keyboard navigation key for the element.
The following values are not recommended because they
are often used by browsers: A, C, E, F, G,
H, V, left arrow, and right arrow |
cols |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
Integer. The number of columns in the <netui:textArea>. |
dataSource |
Required: Yes | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: No |
|
The dataSource attribute determines both
(1) the source of populating data for the tag and
(2) the object to which the tag submits data.
For example, assume that the Controller file (= JPF file) contains
a Form Bean with the property foo. Then the following <netui:textBox> tag will
(1) draw populating data from the Form Bean's foo property and (2)
submit user defined data to the same property.
<netui:textBox dataSource="actionForm.foo" />
The dataSource attribute takes either a data binding expression or
the name of a Form Bean property. In the
above example, <netui:textBox dataSource="foo" />
would have the exactly same behavior.
When the tag is used to submit data, the data binding expression must
refer to a Form Bean property.
In cases where the tag is not used to submit data, but is used for
displaying data only, the data
binding expression need not refer to a Form Bean property. For example,
assume that myIterativeData is a member variable on
the Controller file ( = JPF file). The following <netui-data:repeater>
tag draws its data from myIterativeData.
<netui-data:repeater dataSource="pageFlow.myIterativeData"> |
defaultValue |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
Use in <netui:checkBoxGroup>, <netui:checkBox>,
<netui:radioButtonGroup>, and <netui:select> tags
Sets the preselected value or values.
The defaultValue attribute takes either a String literal or
a data binding expression.
If the defaultValue attribute has a String value (or if
the data binding expression points to a String), then a single value
will be preselected.
If the defaultValue attribute points to a String[] object
(or any object which can be iterated over), then
multiple values will be preselected.
Use in <netui:textArea> and <netui:textBox> tags
Sets the initial display text.
The defaultValue attribute takes either a String literal or
a data binding expression that points to a String. |

or "false" or with an expression. |

element's attribute values and text content. |

|

onDblClick |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onDblClick JavaScript event. |
onFocus |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onFocus JavaScript event. |
onKeyDown |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onKeyDown JavaScript event. |
onKeyPress |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onKeyPress JavaScript event. |
onKeyUp |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onKeyUp JavaScript event. |
onMouseDown |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onMouseDown JavaScript event. |
onMouseMove |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onMouseMove JavaScript event. |
onMouseOut |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onMouseOut JavaScript event. |
onMouseOver |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onMouseOver JavaScript event. |
onMouseUp |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onMouseUp JavaScript event. |
onSelect |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The onSelect JavaScript event. |
readonly |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
Boolean. Determines whether text can be entered in the <netui:textArea> or not. |
rows |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The number of rows in the <netui:textArea> |
style |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
Specifies style information for the current element. |
styleClass |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The style class (a style sheet selector). |
tabindex |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The tabIndex of the rendered HTML tag. This attribute determines the position of the
tag in the sequence of page elements that the user may advance through by pressing the TAB key. |
tagId |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
String value. Sets the id (or name ) attribute of the rendered HTML tag.
Note that the real id attribute rendered in the browser may be
changed by the application container (for example, Portal containers may change
the rendered id value to ensure the uniqueness of
id's on the page). In this case, the real id rendered
in the browser may be looked up
through the JavaScript function lookupIdByTagId( tagId, tag ) .
For example, assume that some tag's tagId attribute is set to foo .
<netui:textBox tagId="foo" />
Then the following JavaScript function will return the real id attribute rendered in the browser:
lookupIdByTagId( "foo", this )
To get a <netui:form> element and all of its children elements in JavaScript, use
the same JavaScript function lookupIdByTagId( tagId, tag ) . For example,
assume that there is a <netui:form> whose
tagId attribute is set to bar .
<netui:form tagId="bar" >
Then the following JavaScript function will return the <netui:form> element
and its children (packaged as an array).
document[lookupIdByTagId( "bar", this )]
To retreive the value entered into a <netui:textBox> within the <netui:form> tag, use the following
JavaScript expression.
document[lookupIdByTagId("bar", this)][lookupIdByTagId("foo", this)].value
The second parameter ensures that the JavaScript function
begins its search within the correct Portlet scope. Pass the
JavaScript keyword this as the second parameter. |
title |
Required: No | Supports
runtime evaluation / JSP Expression Language: Yes |
|
The title. |
In this sample a text area reads from and writes to the Form Bean's
description property. If the submitted value is NULL the default value is specified
by the Page Flow's
defaultDescription property.
