Hi Nick, It is still not clear to me, example: < a t:type="pagelink" page="member" context="rowBltn.id" > which generates:
< a href="/myapp/member/4" id="pagelink_11" /> and the onActivate already has access to the id(4 in this case) without the need to use onPassivate, public Class onActivate(Long id) { return null; } I must miss something here.
