Understood.
The use model for this would be to allow Blocks to be dynamically
created in the template then retrieved using
ComponentResources.findtBlock(). I think findBlock() works off of the
Tapestry id which can't be set.

Whoa. Everything is easy in Tapestry. The hard part is figuring out the
easy way to do it.
Howard, if you happen to read this, one thing that would be generally
useful would be to allow t:id to be set using a variable. Something like
this:
<t:loop source="items" value="item">
<t:something t:id="${item.identifier}"/>
</t:loop>
I don't see that as doable; that implies that the structure of the
page itself is variable. A component's id, just like its type and
parameter bindings, is part of the static structure that is essential
to Tapestry's ability to share a single page instance across multiple
threads, or share requests across multiple servers in a cluster.
Typically, you will use an Environmental object to coordinate an outer
component (that pushes an object into the Environment) with an inner
component (that pulls the environmental out of the Environment).
Right now you can set the HTML id but not the tapestry id this way. There
have been a number of cases where I wanted to do this. It might have been
useful here.
Thanks for building a great framework.

There isn't a good way to do this.
You could inject the "parameters" as Blocks into your code, then pass
a List or Map of those Blocks to your component.
It isn't as pretty in the markup.
Alternately, you could have a naming convention, i.e.
<t:parameter name="fooTitle"> ...</t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="fooContent"> ...</t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="barTitle"> ...</t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="barContent"> ...</t:parameter>

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get equanda/accordion to work with a variable set of tabs
and
contents. The intent is that I want to loop across a list of groups of
objects, with each group a tab and each entry in the tab is a Link to a
page
about the object. Something like this:
Group A
obj 1
obj 2
obj 3
Group B
obj 1
obj 4
For various reasons an accordion will work well for this.
This doesn't work but describes what I'd like to do:
<div type="equanda/accordion">
<t:loop source="groups" value="group">
<t:parameter id="${panel.title_id}">${panel.title}</t:parameter>
<t:parameter id="${panel.content_id}">${panel.content}</t:parameter>
</t:loop>
</div>
Any suggestions?
Thanks
