Just use RenderSupport. I just built my own component named asset attacher for this purpose.
public class AssetAttacher { @Parameter(required = true, allowNull = false, defaultPrefix = BindingConstants.LITERAL) private String assetURL; @Parameter(required = true, allowNull = false, defaultPrefix = BindingConstants.LITERAL) private String assetType; @Inject private EnvironmentAssetAliasManager assetAliasManager; @Environmental private RenderSupport renderSupport; @SetupRender public boolean attach() { if (assetType.equalsIgnoreCase("javascript")) { renderSupport.addScriptLink(assetURL); } else { renderSupport.addStylesheetLink(assetURL, null); } // short circuit to prevent rendering of body (since there's no tml for this component) return false; } } Then from other components tml, just include the AssetAttacher. <t:AssetAttacher t:assetURL="http://www.differentsite.com/my.css" t:assetType="stylesheet"/> or <t:AssetAttacher t:assetURL="http://www.differentsite.com/my.js" t:assetType="javascript "/> ----- Original Message ---- From: Geoffrey Wiseman <geoffrey.wise...@gmail.com> To: Tapestry users <users@tapestry.apache.org> Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2009 1:05:52 PM Subject: Re: @IncludeStylesheet and non-local CSS On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 12:47 PM, Geoffrey Wiseman < geoffrey.wise...@gmail.com> wrote: > If I were to build component that uses YUI, and I wanted to attach the > stylesheet from Yahoo (rather than copying it to my application), it doesn't > seem as if @IncludeStylesheet will let me do that; am I correct? > This was raised before for Javascript ( http://markmail.org/thread/pcrp6gzkyvsm37i5) -- while rendering the Javascript right in the body of the page seems like not a big deal, it's not really ideal for CSS, and it doesn't buy you the duplicate-detection that @IncludeStylesheet will. If it's possible to use external paths, even if it means I have to do some plumbing, I'd like to know about it. Looks like it /might/ be able to do this with my own asset factory? - Geoffrey -- Geoffrey Wiseman http://www.geoffreywiseman.ca/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
