Provides tags for use with the Stripes presentation framework. There are three main
groups of tags in this tag library. First come the HTML form tags. These include
the form tag itself as well as tags for most of the input tag variants. The second
is a set of tags for output error information, including 'errors', 'individual-error'
and others. Last is a set of utility tags. These include the wizard-fields tag which
can write out hidden fields for values in the request, the useActionBean tag to use
ActionBeans as view helpers and the link tags for generating links similar to forms.
Stripes Buffered Layout Tags for Backward Compatibility
1.0
stripes-buffered-layout
http://stripes.sourceforge.net/stripes-buffered-layout.tld
Defines a reusable layout. This tag is designed to wrap the entire contents of a
JSP that is to be re-used to manage the layout of multiple pages. It can contain
HTML, JSP content, scriptlets etc. It may also contain stripes:layout-component
tags. The stripes:layout-component names a section of the layout that can be
supplied during rendering (it may be empty, or have default contents).
Layout definitions will also have access to, through PageContext,
any attributes/parameters supplied at rendering time. These can be referenced in the layout
definition using EL, for example as ${myCustomParameter}. This allows layouts not
only to templatize look and feel, but to potentially render differently based on
the values of parameters passed in at rendering time.

layout-definition
net.sourceforge.stripes.tag.layout.buffered.LayoutDefinitionTag
JSP
Used to define or supply a component of a layout. The stripes:layout-component
tag can be nested inside both the stripes:layout-definition and
stripes:layout-render tags. In the former case it defines a named component in the
layout, and the (optional) body provides a default for the component. When nested in
a stripes:layout-render tag, the body overrides the named component defined in the
layout.
The vanilla case would be to have a layout which defines the header/footer etc. for
your site and that has a component named "body" or "contents" or something similar,
which wraps the area where page content would normally be displayed. Then, when
using that layout through a stripes:layout-render tag, you would use a
stripes:layout-component tag to provide a value for the "body" or "contents"
component of the layout.

layout-component
net.sourceforge.stripes.tag.layout.buffered.LayoutComponentTag
JSP
The name of the component being defined (in the layout definition) or overridden
(when rendering the layout).
name
true
true
Renders the named layout, supplying it with any specified parameters and overridden
components. In addition to being able to supply nested stripes:layout-component tags,
you may also supply any number of dynamic or arbitrary parameters to this tag. All
parameters (except name) will be made available to the layout definition through the
page context.

layout-render
net.sourceforge.stripes.tag.layout.buffered.LayoutRenderTag
JSP
The name of the layout. Since only JSP layouts are supported, this should be the
web application relative path to the JSP that defines the layout.
