There are two steps to create a custom function for JSP:
Declare the function in the TLD:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<taglib...
Implement the function (must be static):
package com.example;
public class UrlTransl...
To use the function:
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.example.com/jsp/tags" p...

This is a simple JSP custom tags library with tag body. Just like the JSF counterpart , it splits a string and repeats the body for each word, i.e., with this markup:
<%@ taglib uri="http://custom.tag.com/demo" prefix...
output:
<html>
<body>
<p>Hello Tigger!</p>

There are three files to write:

Using JSTL tags in JSF facelets is quite simple: just add the XML namespace for the JSTL tags and use them in the page.
An example of using the <c:if> tag:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Trans...

This is a simple example to demonstrate the templating power of JSF facelets. If you've used struts tiles before, you'll recognize the simplicity of templating with facelets. I've stripped out everything else except the pages themselves, just to put our focus on facelets. This is a Maven based project, and you need Tomcat (or any servlet container) to run the resulting webapp. To begin with this is the list of files:
./pom.xml ./src/main/webapp/home.xhtml ./src... I left faces-config.xml in there for completeness sake, it may not be needed. The Maven POM ( pom.xml ): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project... Web app configuration ( WEB-INF/web.xml ): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app... Empty WEB-INF/faces-config.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Thi... index.jsp is simply a redirect to home.jsf : <% response.sendRedirect("home.jsf"); %>...

If CSS3 border-image is properly supported, making a rounded corner box is very easy. You just need a round corner image like this: The following markup:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" ... would render like this (try it in Firefox 3.5 and Google Chrome): However, IE as of version 8.0 does not support border-image . So until border-image is reliably supported in all major browsers, we still have to rely on tried and true tricks to make it work. In general, I found three general categories of tricks to make rounded corners: Good old tables. This trick creates a table of 9 cells and uses the 8 cells on the perimeter to render the borders and rounded corners. The central cell is used for...

The tags XML transform tags apply XSLT to XML documents. The XML document may be specified as the doc attribute or enclosed as the body of the <x:transform> tag. Optional <x:param> tags may be used to specify parameters for the XSLT. <x:transform> Syntax:

The tags XML flow control tags are exactly the same as their Core flow control equivalents, except that the test condition with a boolean EL expression is replaced by the select condition with an XPath expression. In the case of the forEach tag, the items attribute is replaced with the select attribute. In a test condition, the XPath expression is evaluated to a boolean value by the rules of the XPath boolean() function, which converts its argument to a boolean as follows: a number is true if and only if it is neither positive or negative zero nor NaN. a node-set is true if and only if it is non-empty. a string is true if and only if its length is non-zero. an object of...

The tags <x:parse> Parses an XML document. The document to be parsed can be specified by the doc attribute or enclosed as the body of the tag. The parsed document is exposed as the var attribute or the varDom attribute. When exposed as var , the type of the exposed object is implementation dependent; when exposed as varDom , the type of the exposed object is org.w3c.dom.Document . Objects exposed by var and varDom can both be used to set the context of an XPath expression. Syntax:
<x:parse doc="XMLDocument" {var="var" [sco... or, put the XML document in the element body: <x:parse {var="var" [scope="page|request|s... Attributes: Name Dynamic? Type Description doc true String , Reader Source XML document to be parsed. systemId true String The...
