Applying Rico effect for each iteration-created div

[Hussein Baghdadi]

Hi.
I'm using Rico lib to creating rounded divs.
Inside my JSP page, I iterate over a collection , and for each item in this collection, I want to create a rounded div.
The problem is how to apply the Rico effect to each div ?
As you may know, Rico required the div id in order to create a rounded one and inside my JSP iteration, I can't assign the same id for each div.
A snippet :

<c:forEach items="${requestScope.orders}" var="order">
  <div id="hentry">
    <table width="100%" cellpadding="5">
       <tr>
         <td>Order date:</td>
         <td align="left">
            ${order.creationDate}
         </td>
       </tr>
...

Any ideas ?

Please be sure to post questions regarding JSP mechanisms in the JSP forum. This post has been moved there.

As you are using the JSTL, I am sure that you have a copy of the JSTL Spec handy.

Look up <c:forEach> and study its capabilities. You will find something that can help you create unique ids within its bounds.

Actually, I don't the exact number of the iterations.
And as you know, Rico use something like :
var roundCorners = Rico.Corner.round.bind(Rico.Corner);
roundCorners('perPanel', {blend:false});
So, suppose the JSTL iteration tag generated ids like : id1, id2 ...
how to pass these ids to Rico ?
BTW, my Rico code resides in SiteMesh template, so DIV's ids must be known.
What about creating a Rico rounded div for each iteration (putting Rico JavaScript inside the iteration) ?
Another ideas ?

Actually, no I don't. The only part of Rico that I've studied is its Ajax handling (which I found to be interesting, but too bizarre for actual use).

Beats me. I don't see anywhere in your code where an id is required. You'll either need to study the Rico documentation to find out how to use the methods, or find a forum where Rico is more prevelantly used.

The part of the question you asked regarded how to generate unique ids: that's easily handled with the JSTL and EL, Using them afterwards, is a Rico issue.
