Form Custom Tags and HTML 5 data-value Attribute

[brandon....@gmail.com]

I am trying to use the HTML 5 data-value attribute with the form
custom tag library but when it renders the form field the data-value
attribute is not rendered. I tried putting the x namespace in front of
it but that renders the attribute data instead of data-value. I image
because of the "-". I even tried tweaking the tag library and adding
data-value to the setStandardAttributes method with no luck. We are
trying to get to alpha with this form today so any help would be huge!
Even if it is just a how-to on tweaking the baseTagBuilder. Thanks in
advance.

More than likely it's that the CFML engine doesn't like th "-" in the
attribute name. Which engine are you using?

You could use dataValue and in the setStandardAttributes convert that to
output "data-value".

What are the new HTML attributes exactly? I haven't had time to upgrade
the tag libs yet.

Thanks Peter I will give that a shot. I am using OpenBD 2 as my
engine. I am not sure of all the new tag attributes. I will talk to
our front end dev and see if I can get a list for you.

By the way, your suggestion of "You could use dataValue and in the
setStandardAttributes convert that to
output "data-value". " worked like a charm.
