[TOMAHAWK-844] externalLink doesn't work if layout="table"

• Type: Bug

• Priority: Major

Description

The externalLink attribute for commandNavigation2 doesn't work if the parent panelNavigation2 has its layout set to "table".

<t:panelNavigation2 layout="table">
<t:commandNavigation2 value="#

{messages['nav.home']}

" externalLink="/home.jsf" target="_top"/>
<t:commandNavigation2 value="#

{messages['nav.products']}

" externalLink="/products.jsf" target="_top"/>

The output renders <a href="#" ...> instead.

Also there seems to be a problem with rendering the first item in the commandNaviation2 list:

<ul>
<li></li>
<li><a href="/products.jsf" target="_top"></a><ul></ul></li>

Please, note that this output is from layout="list".

Fixing this issue would help GoogleBot a lot with crawling sites when layout="list" isn't an option.

Hope this makes sense.
