Spring MVC 3.1 can send either JSON or HTML response on the same URL, depending on the type of response requested. With this mechanism, a page can be sent when directly requested from a link, but a JSON response can be sent in response to an AJAX request. This is the controller code:
package com.example; import java.util.Map; ... In the above example, JSON response will be sent when the HTTP request contains header "Accept: application/json". HTML response will be sent then the header is "Accept: */*", or "Accept: text/html", or anything else. You can add a limitation that the HTML response does not produce "application/json". But then the question is which response will be sent when the HTTP header is "Accept: */*"? Both methods will...

After a user resets a password, I want to force the user to change the password before she gets access to secured content. This is usually done with a servlet filter. But with Spring MVC, you can also use a HandlerInterceptor . According to Spring JavaDoc: HandlerInterceptor is basically similar to a Servlet 2.3 Filter, but in contrast to the latter it just allows custom pre-processing with the option of prohibiting the execution of the handler itself, and custom post-processing. Filters are more powerful, for example they allow for exchanging the request and response objects that are handed down the chain. Note that a filter gets configured in web.xml, a HandlerInterceptor in the application context. As a basic guideline, fine-grained handler-related preprocessing tasks are candidates...

Some example snippets for Spring message configuration and usage.
To configure a message source in Spring context (basename=messages):
<bean id="messageSource"
class="org.springf...
Locale change interceptor can also be setup with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans x...
The messages file should be named messages.properties (or messages_en.properties , etc.) and located on CLASSPATH , for example: WEB-INF/classes .
To use a message resource in JSP:
<%@ taglib prefix="spring" uri="http://www.springf...

Step 1: define the message code:
code.with.arg=arg1: {0}, arg2: {1}, arg3: {2}
Step 2: use it in the JSP with comma separated arguments:
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.springframework.org/tag...
If the argument itself contains a comma:
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.springframework.org/tag...

This example came from the jQuery validation documentation. The required rule can be used to validate a required selection box when you set the value of the first option to empty.

The error message is the title since no error message is specified. A more fully defined validation check would look like this:
$('#my-form').validate({

My problem is simple: in my XML data, a timestamp is provided as a long integer (number of milliseconds since the "the epoch"). When I do XSLT, I want to display it as a readable string, such as "Mon Nov 01 18:08:48 CDT 2010". After hours of struggle, I found: It's not so easy to get the job done with JDK 1.6 There are tons of garbage on the web in this space (suggestions, code snippets that simply don't work) Simple Xalan extension functions was the only resource that's somewhat informative. Even there some of the examples don't work. Below is a list of what worked and what didn't. This works:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h... This does not (providing long value to Date constructor): <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="h......

The improved custom taglib works with existing facelet ui taglibs. For example:
<ui:param name="theName" value="John"/> <my:hel... produces the expected output. However, a problem exists with the ui:repeat tag: <h3>With ui:repeat</h3> <ui:repeat var="theName... When tested with a URL like: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/?name=Zack&name... the raw EL prints out the correct names, but my custom tag substitutes empty string for theName2 ! In theory, the response is rendered in the Render Response phase, way after the Apply Request Values phase, actual values should be available to EL. The answer to this anomaly turned out to be very deep ! Yes, right there in the code! I would consider this a bug in facelets implementation, but the JSF spec did not tell what the expected behavior should be. In my custom...
