[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: s:SelectDate not popup

[bsmithjj]

Hello,

I'm still having trouble getting the <s:selectDate> to work with night builds of Seam (later than the 1.2.0 patch).  As I reread postings like this and the JIRA issues I have tried to file repeatedly over this, I want to make the following request to the Seam developers - first, let's look at this:

  | img/cal-next.png
  | img/cal-prev.png
  | img/input.bg.gif
  | 
  | on  of HTML:

  | 

Now, in addition to the Seam Resource Servlet, the <s:selectDate> requires the files above.  So instead of constantly asking users of the framework to pull files in from the example, how about just improving <s:selectDate> so that any required resources are provided by the Seam Resource Servlet?  And, for the purposes of skinning, you can come up with some solution that allows the developer to override the defaults?  Speaking as someone who is actively using the framework with a goal of getting to a production release, I don't typically diff the examples with each release of Seam - mainly, I look at the documentation.

I ask this because I've been using Seam for nearly 8 months on a major project - now, I only pick up a new version of Seam when needed (for example, I need fixes in the seam email component....).  It's an unpleasant surprise when a feature like s:selectDate stops working - I've learned how to use it twice now, and with the nightly builds, I can't even get it to work.  I've also learned from discussions in the JIRA issues that s:selectDate may in fact be deprecated/dropped in future Seam releases - if that's the case, then why so much change around s:selectDate?

Thanks,
Brad Smith
