Attributes

Extension to add DOM Attributes to Components

Extending any Component with this Extension allows you to set an attribute to the client side Widget from the server side.

This can be very handy to provide WAI-ARIA attributes for the Components.

Sample code

TextField textField = new TextField();
textField.setId( FIELD_ID);

Label label = new Label( "First Name:");

Attribute labelFor = new Attribute( "for", FIELD_ID);
labelFor.extend( label);

Label separateComboLabel = new Label( "Separate Caption");
layout.addComponent( separateComboLabel);

ComboBox noLabelCombo = new ComboBox();
layout.addComponent( noLabelCombo);

CaptionAttribute comboLabeled = new CaptionAttribute( separateComboLabel);
comboLabeled.extend( noLabelCombo);
