Struts2 jQuery Plugin Version 2.1.0 is released

The new version 2.1.0 of Struts2 jQuery Plugin is released. With this new version, the plugin loads dependent JavaScript files on demand. This feature makes the plugin much better extensible for own extensions and reduces the initial load of the first load of a page.

Based on the new structure of the plugin the jqGrid Feature is not longer a part of the core plugin. It is now available as a separate extension of the plugin.

There is also a new richtext extension available, that is based on the latest version of popular CKEditor. This allows an easy integration of the richtext editor in your web application.

The Plugin includes now the latest version of jQuery UI 1.8.1, so if you use a custom theme it is recommended to update this in the ThemeRoller. For more information and the changelog for 1.8.1 please read the blog post from jQuery UI.
