Details of Sony’s new online service ‘Playstation Home’ will be discussed at the Game Developers Conferenece today.
The new service is expected to bring movie, tv and music downloads to the Playstation Store accessible via a PS3 online. More details are expected to be released today during the Game Developers Conference.
By default ‘list’ pages are generated to use the <paginate> tag, and this invokes the list action to retrieve the next set of results.
If you are using an action other than the default list action, include the action="" attribute on the tag to use an alternative action method:
<code><g:paginate action="${listType}" total="${Purchase.count()}" /></code>
In the above example the action method is the result of a value set from the previous action method to indicate which action method is to be used.
Use the <g:link> tag to link to another action. For example:
To link to ‘someAction’ in the same controller being used to handle this current view page, passing an id:
<code><g:link action="someAction" id="${exampleDomainObject.id}"></code>
If the action is in a different controller, then specify the controller as well:
<code><g:link action="someAction" controller="OtherControlller" id="${exampleDomainObject.id}"></code>
