Ooops, Hit enter too soon. Here is a resend I am trying to use the Grid component to render an HTML table with very specific CSS to make the table look like a table which is currently being rendered with the displaytag library in a Struts2 application. Our current style sheet uses CSS selectors based on the simple element name without any classes. This works well with displaytag as it's default behavior is to output a simple table without any CSS classes.
I am having two issues: 1) Applying styles. My preference would like to simply apply our existing styles to an HTML table created by Tapestry without having to wrestle with the default styles in place. I looks like Tapestry's Grid component specifies a total of 23 CSS attributes among its various styles for the Grid and related components. I know we can override these attributes in our stylesheets, but this puts a rather annoying burden on our CSS developer. Another option would be to remove the default tapestry stylesheet via application configuration, but this would have negative side effects for other components such as the exception page. Is there a way to have the Grid component not render any style classes or to use style classes we specify? Any other ideas would be appreciated. 2) Changing pager display Is there a way to override the rendering of the pager, perahaps by specifiying an alternate block to use? With these in mind, am I better off not using the Grid component and creating my own Table component instead?
