Oracle sqlplus command line tools does not support command line editing out-of-the-box. But on Linux there's a handy utility that enables command line editing with any command line tool: rlwrap - readline wrapper.
Install rlwrap:
$ sudo apt-get install rlwrap
Create a keywords file .sql.dict (optional, but convenient):
false null true

It would be nice to add the tables names also.
Create an alias for sqlplus (put it in .bashrc ):
alias sqlplus='rlwrap -f $HOME/.sql.dict sqlplus'

In this example I'll add a parameter to a facelets template. The example contains three tabs, each tab points to a different page. The tab control is shared among all pages, therefore, it is put in the template.
Starting from the simple facelet example , make these additions:
Create a new template WEB-INF/templates/tabs.xhtml :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Stric...
Add a page for the about tab ( about.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Add a page for the news tab ( news.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Add a page for the partner tab ( partner.xhtml ):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui:comp...
Build and re-deploy the application. Launch the browser and load page http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/about.jsf .

Apparently the dx tool was running out of memory. The dx script (shell or bat) provides options to pass in Java options, but it's a lot easier just to bump up the default in dx :

Here, I changed the default 1024M to 1624M and resolved the problem.

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 code presented here is a simple implementation of a tab set. It is used to demo how a tab set could be implemented. The code is stand alone and does not depend on any JavaScript libraries. Multiple tab sets within the same page is supported.
The HTML markup is fairly simple:
Tabs sets are contained within a DIV element with class name "tabsContainer".
Define a UL list for the tabs.
Follow the UL list with equal number of DIVs for the tab contents.
The Nifty Corners Cube technique is used to draw the rounded corners (original form, not the enhanced JavaScript form).
HTML, CSS and JavaScript:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
