The real issue with tapestry is the tml must be named to match the java class and java classes can't be created with a dash, however search engines would prefer page names that are written like "tapestry5-annotations" rather than "tapestryannotations". To my knowledge, you are currently your left with a couple work around choices, 1. url rewrite (a lot of work) 2. context params (messy) So since we can't rename our pages to be SEO friendly, I suggested creating an annotation similar to hibernates table name and handle the rewrite behind the scenes. For old pages like tapestry5annotations that may still be indexed by search engines, just do a redirect to tapestry5-annotations with a 301 when the annotation exist. > Of course, it's possible to implement URL rewriting based on annotations, > supposing the logic is describable in an annotation. tapestry-routing is > one example.

As I indicated before, I'm going to give Kalles project a whirl and report back. > > -- > Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo > Tapestry, Java and Hibernate consultant and developer > http://machina.com.br > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org > > -- George Christman CEO www.CarDaddy.com P.O.
