Hi All,

Our project uses WSRP Portlets for development.
At a plain jsf level this does not pose a problem at all for me.
But in our project we use WSRP Portlets.Which has a producer and consumer fr
amework.
Its a very simple requirement there is a pdf icon onclick of that i need to 
download the report from the database.

I used <h:outputLink> in the following manner to hit the download servlet.
But i need to encode the URL we do in our javascript.
String encodedURL_dtd = response.encodeURL(request.getContextPath()+ "/Downl
oadServlet");


<h:datatable var="item" value="databean.list" >
..............
<h:outputLink rendered="#{(item.strreportFormat == 'P') value="#{f
acesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/DownloadServlet">

<h:graphicImage value="/images/icon/icon_small_pdf.gif" alt="View Reports"><
/h:graphicImage>
<f:param id="id1" value="item.id" />
<f:param id="sys1" value="item.sysName" />
</h:outputLink>
......
</h:datatable>


Any suggestions are welcome....

You can use the same EL expression in the JS code if it's in the tag's attri
bute.

I hope i understood you correctly but i tried to do something like this and 
it gave me the following error.
JSPG0124E: Custom tag attribute value cannot be runtime expression. value: "
[%= renderResponse.encodeURL(renderRequest.getContextPath() + "/ReconPro
cessorServlet") %]"

When i tried replacing this.
value="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/ReconProcesso
rServlet"> with
value="<%= renderResponse.encodeURL(renderRequest.getContextPath() + "/Recon
ProcessorServlet") %>" >

I couldn't find any corresponding EL for renderResponse.encodeURL.

You can't use JSP expressions, only EL expressions on JSF tags, so <%= isn't
 goping to work.

Maybe I didn't quite understand what you are trying to do. You mentioned Jav
aScript, so I thought you were trying to move the same EL expression you had
 for 'value' into some JavaScript code.

If you are just trying to replace the expression for value, then what you ca
n do is use a method of a managed bean (pagecode bean, for example) that doe
s what you need and use that method for the expression on the value attribut
e.

For example:
value="#{pc_MyPage.servletUrl}"
and
public String getServletUrl() {
return ((RenderRequest)getFacesContext().getExternalContext().getRequest()).
encodeURL(... and so on
}
