This is why I don't use the Border component pattern, but add the basic structure to all pages. With a decent css design and some NavigationPane/Header/Footer components you can keep the additional tags quite low, and allow the designer maximum freedom.
Something like: <html jwcid="shell"> <head jwcid="$remove$"> ... </head> <body jwcid="body"> <div id="navbar" jwcid="navbar"><ul><li>Link</li></ul></div> <div id="content"> .. </div> <div id="footer" jwcid="footer">copyright etc.</div> Henrik "Malin Ljungh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev i en meddelelse news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >I thought one of the main advantages of Tapestry was that you can open your > html files directly from > the filesystem and see how they actually will look when rendered by the > Tapestry servlet. > > But now when my design guy is about to do the css this is not the case, > and > I guess it is because I have not entered static bodies to the components > that renders its own body in a proper way.
