How to call the tablekit javascript library in jsp?
I downloaded the tablekit javascript library and put it in the js
directory which is in the jsp directory.
i.e. the directory is
C:\workspace\com.mycomp.data.war\WEB-INF\jsp\js
The jsp page is as follows and display correctly with FF and chrome on
Windows Vista.
However, the column of the page is not sorted by clicking on the
column.
i.e. the tablekit javascript library sorting function does not work
on the web page generated by jsp.

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<body>
<table border="1" class="sortable resizable"
style="width:100%;background-color:#FFA69C;border-collapse:
collapse">
<thead>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<h3 style="text-align:center">Data</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th class="sortfirstdesc" id="data">Data</th>
<th id="message">Message</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<c:forEach items="${model.datas}" var="data">
<tr>
<td> <style="font-family:monospace">${data.id}
</td>
<td> <style="font-family:monospace">${data.message}
</td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
</tbody>
</table>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/fabtabulous.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/tablekit.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

You'll be wanting a tablekit forum.

*Please* get yourself informed what JSP is and what it does before you
continue.

Besides, libraries are _not_ called; functions in libraries are.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="js/prototype.js"> said:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="js/fabtabulous.js"> said:
<script type="text/javascript"

OMG.

And *please* stop crossposting until you got that minimum clue. TIA.

This might be your problem. In my experience, resources like scripts
or images should be placed relative to the web application's root
directory, in your case, the JS should probably be in,

C:\workspace\com.mycomp.data.war\js

There's no problem with the OP in that regard. One can, and often does embed
Javascript in a JSP, wherein it becomes part of the generated HTML. You have
no basis to your objection there.

One calls Javascript libraries from JSP in exactly the way one does from HTML.

Well, there are component frameworks like JSF that automagically generate
Javascript for some of their functionality, but here we're talking about the
application-specific JS that would be present regardless.
Besides, libraries are _not_ called; functions in libraries are.

Yeesh. And people call me picky. To say that one "calls a library" is to say
colloquially that one calls methods from that library. Take a chill pill.

Yes? You rang?
And *please* stop crossposting until you got [sic] that minimum clue.

There was a good reason why the OP cross-posted. It's not like they
multi-posted.

You should stop whining until you get that minimum clue.

You are right.
JS should probably be in C:\workspace\com.mycomp.data.war\js.
Thanks.
