Document api vs taglib #285

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
This is a documentation issue, based on my experience as a very new user of 
jmesa.

I started noticing after a while that there seems to be two different ways of 
building the view: taglib or api. I thought there must be some documentation 
that helps me decide which to choose. I could not find one so I thought, well 
they are probably more or less equivalent then so I decided for taglib which 
seemed to be more consistent with MVC. I built my view using the taglib then 
when I was going to implement the AJAX call I see in

http://code.google.com/p/jmesa/wiki/AjaxTutorialV3

"Also keep in mind that when using AJAX you have to use the API to build your 
table. There is no support for using AJAX when using the tag library. "

Which means I need to change to the api, well no big issue, but my point is 
that some more obvious documentation on the different methods would probably be 
a good thing.

I see your point. In general I think JMesa is pretty easy to use, but there is 
a learning curve. 

If you were inclined to write up some sort of tutorial or article aimed at new 
users (based on your experience) I would post it on the site!
