[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: <s:decorate> - is id available within template?

[tynor]

It may not be clear from my original text what i'm trying to do. 

I have various form elements that use <s:decorate>: 

            <s:decorate id="cityDecoration" template="/WEB-INF/facelets/templates/edit.xhtml">
  |                 <ui:define name="label">City</ui:define>
  |                 <ui:param name="partialRequired" value="true" />
  |                 <h:inputText id="city" 
  |                            size="40"
  |                       maxlength="50"
  |                           value="#{clientHome.instance.city}">
  |                     <a:support event="onblur" reRender="cityDecorationINNER1,cityDecorationINNER2"/>
  |                 </h:inputText>
  |             </s:decorate>

in my edit.xhtml, i'd like to use the id passed to s:decorate (cityDecoration) and use it to name two spans: 

<tr class="entry""> 
  | <th class="name">
  | <span id="#{id}INNER1">
  |         <s:label styleClass="name #{invalid?'errors':''}">
  |             <ui:insert name="label"/>
  |             <s:span styleClass="required" rendered="#{required}">*</s:span>
  |         </s:label>
  | </span>
  | </th>
  | <td>
  | <span id="#{id}INNER2">
  |         <span class="value #{invalid?'errors':''}">
  |             <s:validateAll>
  |                 <ui:insert/>
  |             </s:validateAll>
  |         </span>
  |        <ui:insert name="description" />
  |        <div><s:message styleClass="error errors"/></div>
  | </span>
  | </td>
  | </tr>

I can't find a way to refer to the s:decorate's id to generate a derived name (#{id} as above doesn't work - it evaluates to an empty string).  The only thing i can find that will work is to set a <ui:param> and use that instead of the s:decorate's id-- but that really clutters my form xhtml.
