i was wondering how to tell tapestry not to load any of the scriptlous or prototype libraries. Our company uses our own js libraries, and these script.aculo.us files increase download times drastically. I think forcing all tapestry applications with forms to use these files is ridicoulous. I mean it would be one thing if they were 10 or 20k but at the moment tapestry forces uses to download an extra 220 K of resources just to handle a page with forms.
atleast use http://dean.edwards.name/packer/ to pack all fo the files the 146KB prototype library will be compressed to 46KB. our company chose tapestry to work with because it was the easiest to use of the non obtrusive web application frameworks. i dont want to see T5 get bloated with a bunch of features that are not necessary. If developers of the tapestry applications want to add the bells and whistles, then they should be able to add them manually. all in all if we aren't able to create a config file which can turn this off and on, how would one go about manually overiding these features to turn them off. our website's landing page is. thank you in advance yours truly evan
