good question we made this like 16 months ago, so i gotta remember how it
works. this stomps out the shell and replaces it with your own custom. we
did this so we can easily incorporate a DB driven meta generator, as well as
full control of the head. really it wasn't that bad to make it. took about 6
hours to replicate the head of the document.
within your component to handle this are you rendering the Body using
RenderBody() i believe this is what triggers the actually rendering of the
page components and page class.
whats the specific lines of
org.apache.tapestry.html.Shell.renderComponent(Shell.java:63)
org.trails.demo.components.LayoutAssets.renderComponent(LayoutAssets.java:96)
try tracing the problem back though rthe inetrnals that might lead you to
whats not being set. for some reason i dont think
super.renderComponent(writer, cycle); is working the way it should. cuz if
that doesn't render or get triggered then your base component wont put in
the correct markup for tap to work. try writting out the entire head
manually usuing the writer rather then extending it.

Evan I appreciate your assistance and knew you had the best solution.
But does your derivative completely stomp/override and replace default
Shell.renderComponent? Or does the default Shell.renderComponent get
executed somewhere?
I am just wondering if you had to go thru th epain of copying out of
Shell.renderComponent all it's guts and instrumenting them in place within
your Hacks.renderComponent or whether you found a way to utilize/operate
the base class in some rendering capacity in conjunction with your
override.
Could you elaborate? I know it sounds like basic inheritence stuff but I
have tried to execute super.renderComponent within my overridden version
and could not get it to work and do not understand why it crashes with
nullpointerexception... or whether the base class execution of
renderComponent needs to be avoided altogether for some strange reason.
Best regards

Also, is it possible for someone to offer a snippet as how to actually
implement the instrumentation of the CSS logic? is this specified in a
template? Or do I have to write it out to the writer?
Thanks for any assistance.
Best regards
