Class OutputTag

java.lang.Object
  javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TagSupport
      com.jcorporate.expresso.ext.taglib.ExpressoTagSupport
          com.jcorporate.expresso.ext.taglib.OutputTag

All Implemented Interfaces:

IterationTag, Serializable, Tag

public class OutputTag

extends ExpressoTagSupport

OutputTag is a tag that by itself does not display anything. The OutputTag must have a start and end tag. Between these tags, the ContentTag can be used to place the content from the Output, and the AttributeTag can be used to place attributes of the Output. The OutputTag can also be used to fetch out nested outputs, if one OutputTag is nested within another one. Right now only one level of nesting is supported. We need to do this recursively.

Usage example: Content Area:
Attribute: Nested Output:
