Struts2 - Need to change the value of style element of s:textfield dynamically using local variable

[Mithil Shukla]

I need to change the value of style element "top" with the local variable vTopPosition.

Below is the code which is not working.


<%! int vTopPosition = 255; %>

<s:iterator var="characteristicValues" value="MaterialDTO.characteristicValue">

<s:textfield id="attribute" name="abc" value="%{characteristicValues}" type="text" cssClass="input" readonly="true"
style="position: absolute; width: 200px; left: 227px; top: <%=vTopPosition>px; z-index: 31" />

<% vTopPosition=vTopPosition+25;%>
</s:iterator>

Kindly suggest what changes I need to make to make top element dynamic.

Hi Mithil,

for this you need to change the struts themes. Refer the struts documentation. Struts tags are there in struts2core.jar .

The theme templates (simple, xhtml, css_xhtml) can be found in the Struts 2 core jar file. If you expand (extract the files) the Struts 2 core jar file you'll find folders named template.css_xhtml, template.simple, and template.xhtml. Those folders contain the templates for the three default Struts 2 themes. In each folder is a file for each Struts 2 tag. For example if you expand the template.xhtml folder you’ll see the select.ftl file.

Refer this document: Document

This issue got resolved using the following code.

<s:set var="vTopPosition" value="%{255}"></s:set>
		

		<s:iterator var="characteristicValues" value="MaterialDTO.characteristicValue">
				
			<s:textfield id="attribute" name="abc" value="%{characteristicValues}" type="text" cssClass="input" readonly="true"
			style="position: absolute; width: 200px; left: 227px; top:${vTopPosition}px; z-index: 31" />
			<s:set var="vTopPosition" value="%{#vTopPosition+25}"/>
			
		</s:iterator>

Thanks for Help...
