String value. Sets the id (or name) attribute of the rendered HTML tag.
+ * Note that the real id attribute rendered in the browser may be
+ * changed by the application container (for example, Portal containers may change
+ * the rendered id value to ensure the uniqueness of
+ * id's on the page). In this case, the real id rendered
+ * in the browser may be looked up
+ * through the JavaScript function lookupIdByTagId( tagId, tag ).
+ *
+ *
For example, assume that some tag's tagId attribute is set to foo.
+ *
+ *
<netui:textBox tagId="foo" />+ * + *
Then the following JavaScript function will return the real id attribute rendered in the browser: + * + *
lookupIdByTagId( "foo", this )+ * + *
To get a <netui:form> element and all of its children elements in JavaScript, use
+ * the same JavaScript function lookupIdByTagId( tagId, tag ). For example,
+ * assume that there is a <netui:form> whose
+ * tagId attribute is set to bar.
+ *
+ *
<netui:form tagId="bar" >+ * + *
Then the following JavaScript function will return the <netui:form> element + * and its children (packaged as an array). + * + *
document[lookupIdByTagId( "bar", this )]+ * + *
To retreive the value entered into a <netui:textBox> within the <netui:form> tag, use the following + * JavaScript expression. + * + *
document[lookupIdByTagId("bar", this)][lookupIdByTagId("foo", this)].value
+ *
+ * The second parameter ensures that the JavaScript function
+ * begins its search within the correct Portlet scope. Pass the
+ * JavaScript keyword this as the second parameter.
