I'm looking for an alternative to www.jsfmatrix.net to get a better idea of what JSF libraries are out there and to avoid having to write my own grid/table components. Or are these 27 the best the world has to offer (really only 3 are worth their salt.) ...

JSF is setting the ID of an input field to search_form:expression. I need to specify some styling on that element, but that colon looks like the beginning of a pseudo-element to the browser so it gets marked invalid and ignored. Is there anyway to escape the colon or something? input#search_form:expression { ///... } ...

The field is a part of a included facelets component and so the form will vary. included.xhtml <ui:component> <h:inputText id="contained_field"/> <h:commandButton actionListener="#{backingBean.update}" value="Submit"/> </ui:component> example_containing.xh...

A similar error were reported at this Sun forumn´s post, but without answers. Anyone else with the same problem, or have a solution? ;) Due to some requests.

I've been looking into OSGi recently and think it looks like a really good idea for modular Java apps. However, I was wondering how OSGi would work in a web application, where you don't just have code to worry about - also HTML, images, CSS, that sort of thing. At work we're building an application which has multiple 'tabs', each tab b...
I have a dilemma at my job. We're looking to integrate two different J2EE projects and they both use different frameworks for the web component. We're also looking to add more dynamic capability/AJAX to it. One uses JSF and the other uses Spring. Basically we're trying to pick one of the projects and integrate them using that technol...

For example I have the following navigation-rule <navigation-rule> <navigation-case> <from-outcome>showMessage</from-outcome> <to-view-id>/showMessage.jsf</to-view-id> ...
Hello, is there a tomahawk component, that enables "scrollable tabs"? What I mean is something for the following situation: If I have very many tabs, the tab-bar gets a little arrow on the side to scroll through all the open tabs (like in firefox). Is there a tomahawk component for creating something similar? ...
On our new platform we are utilizing JSF. Our WebTrends tags are not reflecting the proper page title on this platform. It currently is displaying the name of the users previous page instead of the current page. We are making use of the JSF Navigation rule in which we have some "< redirect />" tags.

We're using MyFaces, Richfaces & Restfaces to build a website on top of Oracle Stellant CMS. We're not using Site Studio.

I'm deploying a JSF (myfaces, restfaces, and richfaces) app to OC4J. I don't want the jsessionid to appear in the status bar or the URL address. I have managed to suppress it in almost all cases. The one case that I still have problems with is when the site is first visited with a "clean" browser (with no cache, history, etc.). In this c...
I've been playing with Seam (2.0.2.SP1) for a few weeks, and I have most of the basics nailed down, but I haven't come up with a decent solution to the following. Suppose I have a form at /foo.xhtml, with a rewrite rule such that URLs like /foo.seam?id=<fooId> are converted to /foo/<fooId>. There's a commandButton on the form with an a...
I am using lots of commandLinks in my app. For them to work, JSF generates some wild Javascript ( function dpf(f) {var adp... ). Sadly, the script-tag destroys my layout. (It really does - I am sure about that). Is there a way to force JSF to generate the script-tag somewhere else? ...

However, once the page is loaded I have to collect all the variables or JSO written by this multiple components in the page. How can I do this so that I will have a collection of all the variables...
