Easy Forms: return id in the html output

Bram van Essen:

While implementing a Easy Forms template that takes the accessibility guidelines into account a bit more,
I ran into a problem that the radiobuttons and checkboxes don't return an id attribute in the call to getHtml().
The following code is used in the getHtml():

@Override
public String getHtml()

{ final StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); return builder.append("<input type=\"checkbox\"") .append(generateAttribute("name", getName(), false)) .append(generateAttribute("value", getValue(), false)) .append(getCssMeta()) .append(generateAttribute("checked", isChecked() ? "checked" : "", false)) .append(" />").toString(); }

Setting the id on a specific checkbox works, but due to the code above it never gets returned.
I know it should be possible to override this, but couldn't get that to work on a short notice.

I had to change the jsp (demo) template to get the id attribute in the checkbox:

• Drop the ${box.html}.,
• Change it to the complete checkbox code.

The request for a future Easy Forms:

@Override
public String getHtml()

{ final StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); return builder.append("<input type=\"checkbox\"") .append(generateAttribute("name", getName(), false)) .append(generateAttribute("value", getValue(), false)) .append(generateAttribute("id", getId(), false)) .append(getCssMeta()) .append(generateAttribute("checked", isChecked() ? "checked" : "", false)) .append(" />").toString(); }
