The idea is simple: duplicate the input field and position one on top of the other. The top one will take the input, while the bottom one will serve the placeholder. The top one will have a transparent background so the value of the placeholder field will show through. The placeholder field is disabled so that it's value is not submitted with the form. Here's the code:
(function($) { $.fn.placeholder = function(... But in practice, it's tricky. Notice that I used 'background-color': 'rgba(255, 255, 255, 0)' for the background transparency. This is because 'background-color': 'transparent' does not work for IE9. Even though the input is on top of the placeholder, the placeholder always gets the event when you click on the field. That might be...

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

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'

You can submit a form via Ajax by the jQuery Form Plugin . There are two main methods:
ajaxForm : prepares a form for Ajax submit.
Example:
$('#myFormId').ajaxForm({
target: ...
When the form is submitted, it is sent via Ajax.
ajaxSubmit : submit a form via Ajax.
Example:
$('#myForm2').submit(function() {
// i...
jQuery Form Plugin is not in the core jQuery API, so you have to include an additional JS file:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" ...

There are two ways to validate a form with JSF: jsf validation on the page with <f:validate...> tags (for example: <f:validateLength> , <f:validateRegex> , etc.), or JSR303 bean validation. This note is about how to customize messages for JSR303 bean validation. The validation message is specified in the message attribute for each validation annotation type. The mesage attribute is not a literal string, but a string that is interpolated in various ways. For example, the default validation message for AssertFalse is {javax.validation.constraints.AssertFalse.message} , which is replaced with the corresponding string in ValidationMessages.properties (or ValidationMessages_tr.properties , ValidationMessages_es.properties , depending on the locale). This is the contents of ValidationMessages.properties in the hibernate validator reference implementation:
javax.validation.constraints.AssertFalse.message =... To customize the messages, just provide the new value in...

This is an example that uses tag handler, UI component and renderer together to support a custom taglib. The main purpose is to show how these components play together.

In the simple taglib example , I used a tag handler class to implement a taglib. This is an example to implement a taglib with a UI component. The purpose is to use a custom tag to split a string and print each part in a separate paragraph, i.e., print
<p>john</p> <p>steve</p> <p>mike</p> with custom tag <my:foreach> : <my:foreach var="who" value="john steve mike"> ... These are the files: pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"... src/main/java/com/example/UIForeash.java : package com.example; import java.io.IOExcep... src/main/resources/META-INF/faces-config.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <faces-c... src/main/resources/META-INF/foreach.taglib.xml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <facelet... How to use: Put the JAR file generated by the above project in the WEB-INF/lib folder of the web app. If the web app is a Maven project, just add the taglib project as a dependency:...
