The improved custom taglib works with existing facelet ui taglibs. For example:
<ui:param name="theName" value="John"/> <my:hel... produces the expected output. However, a problem exists with the ui:repeat tag: <h3>With ui:repeat</h3> <ui:repeat var="theName... When tested with a URL like: http://localhost:8080/facelet-demo/?name=Zack&name... the raw EL prints out the correct names, but my custom tag substitutes empty string for theName2 ! In theory, the response is rendered in the Render Response phase, way after the Apply Request Values phase, actual values should be available to EL. The answer to this anomaly turned out to be very deep ! Yes, right there in the code! I would consider this a bug in facelets implementation, but the JSF spec did not tell what the expected behavior should be. In my custom...

In the test for the simple taglib example , I used a literal string for the name attribute:
<my:hello name="Jack"/> What happens if the name attribute contains EL expresson? For example: <my:hello name="#{param['name']}"/> If EL works, the tag should take the value of the " name " request parameter and print it out. But the tag as implemented in the simple taglib example prints the literal string: Hello #{param['name']}! I am FaceletTag. In order to make a tag to recognize EL, we have to use TagAttribute.getValue(FaceletContext ctx) instead of TagAttribute.getValue() . The latter returns the literal value of the attribute. The HelloTagHandler should be changed to: package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... Rebuild the taglib and test with a URL like this: http://localhost:8080/facelet-test/?name=Jack The tag will print:...

Alfresco RESTful URLs provided by Web Scripts are extensively documented, but examples are hard to come by. This makes it hard to ramp up for beginners. Here are some examples I tested on 3.4.4 enterprise edition and 4.0a community edition, with the results documented. To list the available scripts:
http://localhost:8081/alfresco/service/index There's a Refresh Web Scripts button at the bottom of the page. If you add a Web Script, you need to click that button in order for the system to know about your addition. To get information about the root folder ( Company Home ): http://localhost:8081/alfresco/service/cmis/p To get information about the folder Data Dictionary : http://localhost:8081/alfresco/service/cmis/p/Data... To get information about the folder Data Dictionary/Space Templates : http://localhost:8081/alfresco/service/cmis/p/Data... You get the idea. To list the children...

If you are looking for a solution for a progress bar, I direct you to the following resources: Bare Naked App provides a simple and elegant solution based on pure CSS with two images. You control the percentage of completion through the background-position attribute of the CSS. HTML:
<img src="/images/percentImage.png" alt="... CSS: img.percentImage { background: white url(/imag... Images: (percentImage.png) (percentImage_back.png) WebAppers extended the above solution with JavaScript. They also added several colored images: JQuery UI has a built-in progress bar widget. However, if you want to get to understand some of the foobar needed to get CSS to work (in general) through this example, stay with me for the rest of this note. Initially I was thinking, a progress bar should be easy: just make...

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...

This is a bare bones, no frills, just the facts tutorial on JSTL. I will not bother you with theories, principles, best practices, anecdotes, or any other junk, because JSTL is shallow and simple, and I don't want to make it sound deep or complex.
