Hello list, currently the place I work at has a number of web application
which are all separate, all maintained by different teams and all have 
sections of similar functionality that has been implemented individually 
in each project. Bit of a nightmare really.

Anyway, it's being mooted that we should move to a common framework and 
have a suite of common components that can be slotted into each application
as needs be.

Currently all the applications use Struts 1.1 with a couple using XSLT 
instead of JSP's. So there is scope to make a suite of common action 
classes and JSP's etc. Although they all have their own visual identity
so generating the JSP's would need to be done via some sort of rendering 
tag.

I was just wondering if you had the chance to start from fresh with a 
number of web applications to write, which stream of Struts would you 
use...? 1.x or go for something like Shale, or maybe even something else?

Would I be correct in thinking that if I used JSF, I could write custom 
tags and have a different renderer for each application that simply deals 
with the visual identity of each application? For example, one application 
uses <fieldset> tags to group form items, while another uses <div> tags 
with border styles set.

Cheers,
