I have 2 basic templates - one with a side menu, and one without - that both ui:include a common page which contains ui:insert tags (templates are largish, so basic example below).
Using Mojarra everything worked ok, but now I have migrated to MyFaces the ui:insert tags are ignored and the content of the related ui:define does not get rendered (i.e. 'Here are my results' is not displayed).
Should I be specifying included-page.xhtml as a template somehow? I tried
<ui:composition template="included-page.xhtml" />
instead of
<ui:include src="included-page.xhtml" />
but lost the CSS.
Hoping someone can suggest a solution :)
Many thanks,
Neil
my-page.xhtml
<ui:composition xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
template="/templates/default-template.xhtml">
<ui:param name="title" value="My Title" />
<ui:define name="results">
Here are my results
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
default-template.xhtml

</ui:composition>
The <ui:include> should have been an <ui:decorate>.
<ui:decorate template="included-page.xhtml" />
But if the included-page.xhtml is by itself not reused elsewhere, I wonder why it isn't just been inlined in the master template instead.

Need help here. I'm trying to make my current project bookmarkable. My current design can basically be summed up in this code snippet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"
xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core">
<f:metadata>
<f:viewParam name="contentUrl" value="#{navigationBean.contentUrl}"/>
</f:metadata>
<h:body>
<ui:composition template="/views/template/template.xhtml">
<ui:define name="leftpane">
<ui:include src="/views/admin/menu_administrator.xhtml"/>
</ui:define>
<ui:define name="rightpane">
<p:growl showDetail="true" sticky="false" />
<ui:decorate template="/views/admin/content/#{navigationBean.contentUrl}.xhtml"/>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
</h:body>
</html>
So I have this template to make the site 30/70 look having the "leftpane" contain the menu and the "rightpane" to display the output content. What I want is to be able to change the output in the "rightpane" depending on the URL sent:
www.mysite.com/projectitle/views/admin/Administrator.xhtml?faces-redirect=true&contentUrl=cont_admin_rapptmnttype
Whatever will be constructed in this url: /views/admin/content/#{navigationBean.contentUrl}.xhtml on the "rightpane" also has a corresponding backing bean to generate the needed output
I'm using Primefaces3.5, MyFaces2.0, WAS8.5
Hope someone could help me out on this. Thanks.
UPDATE:
I am using a p:menuitem to set the contentUrl like
<p:menuitem value="Appointment Type" id="cont_admin_rapptmnttype"
ajax="false" outcome="#{navigationBean.currentMode}" >
<f:param name="contentUrl" value="cont_admin_rapptmnttype"/>
</p:menuitem>
But when I click on the menuitem I get a Stackoverflow exception which, as it turns, is caused by:
<ui:decorate template="/views/admin/content/#{navigationBean.contentUrl}.xhtml"/>
Which is the one I'm trying to update.
Here is the recurring exception in the stacktrace:

I am new to JSF and Primefaces and have created a project with JSF2.0, Glassfish v3.0 and Jdk 6.0.Now want to use Primefaces tags instead of JSF tags.
I have downloaded primefaces-3.5.jar and added it into WEB-INF/lib folder and it well recognized into my *.xhtml pages.
But when I try to run the application it does not recognizes the PrimeFaces tags.
for Example:
if I insert:
<p:inputText id="username" validator="#{regBean.username}" required="true" requiredMessage="Please enter Username"/>
instead of:
<h:inputText id="username" value="#{regBean.username}" required="true" requiredMessage="Please enter Username!"/>
it does not show the input box in the Web Application.
Do I need to include any configuration details in web.xml file?
please suggest!!
Try something like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<h:head>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<p:editor></p:editor>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
Also make sure you have primefaces.jar in your path.
I have this issue, i think is a bug, i have a composite component with a simple inputtext, then i try to use my composite component in a modal dialog, at first look all it's ok, you can type inside the inputtext, but when the inputtext lost the focus and try to type again you cant, even you can't erase what you typed before.
In the issue tracker, there are a similiar problem reported:
LINK!!!!!
But this is with autocomplete not with input (maybe can be the same), but is marked as fixed, and i tried with PrimeFaces 3.3.1 and 3.4-SNAPSHOT but the problem persist.
Im using 3.4-SNAPSHOT
Here is a "reproducible test cases", i add an other input to my composite component for lost the focus more easily from first input.
Composite component:

I tried to replace p:inputText with h:inputText and the problem persist.
Im using:
MyFaces 2.1.8, Primefaces 3.4-SNAPSHOT
I'm trying to incorporate primefaces into my JSF 2.0 web project.
I've recently updated from facelets 1.x to 2.0 and Added primefaces jar to my library folder. Everything is fine except, the way I have my templates structured has a conflict with the primefaces.
my template.xhtml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<h:head>
<title><ui:insert name="title">MILO</ui:insert></title>
//Css
//js
</h:head>
<h:body class="milo">
<h:form styleClass="miloForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div id="container">
<ui:insert name="header">
<ui:include src="/WEB-INF/templates/header.xhtml"/>
</ui:insert>
<ui:insert name="content">
<!-- include your content file or uncomment the include below and create content.xhtml in this directory -->
</ui:insert>
<ui:insert name="footer">
<ui:include src="/WEB-INF/templates/footer.xhtml"/>
</ui:insert> </div>
</h:form>
</h:body>
And my index.xhtml looked like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<ui:composition template="/WEB-INF/templates/base.xhtml">
<ui:define name="content">
<p:editor/>
</ui:define>
Once I have this, the p:editor won't show up. any ideas why? the console won't show me any warnings/errors.
EDIT>>> Found JS Error
In your template.xhtml, you need to replace <head> by <h:head> and <body> by <h:body>. You shouldn't add another ones, that would only result in invalid HTML.
Particularly the <h:head> is mandatory as it allows component libraries like PrimeFaces to auto-include the necessary CSS/JS files by resource dependency injection. The <h:body> is only mandatory whenever you have <h:outputScript> elements with a target="body" so that they will be auto-relocated to the very bottom of the generated HTML <body> element.
Update your concrete problem is caused by a conflict in the manually loaded jQuery library and the one which is auto-included by PrimeFaces. PrimeFaces uses jQuery and jQuery UI under the covers. If you stick to using PrimeFaces, I'd recommend to drop the manually loaded jQuery and use the PrimeFaces-bundled one instead. To cover pages where you don't use PrimeFaces components as well, you can explicitly load PrimeFaces-bundled jQuery for every page by adding the following line to the <h:head>:
<h:outputScript library="primefaces" name="jquery/jquery.js" />
I create a template xhtml file which is like richfaces-showcase main.xhtml:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:a4j="http://richfaces.org/a4j">
<f:view contentType="text/html">
<h:head>
<!-- Mimic Internet Explorer 8 -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />
<title>My title</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<div id="page">
<ui:insert name="body">
Body content missed
</ui:insert>
</div>
</h:body>
</f:view>
</html>
And in sub page, I defined the "template body", and add an a4j:poll in my sub page, which I want to use to refresh the data every 5 seconds:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets" xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich"
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core">
<ui:composition template="/templates/main.xhtml">
<ui:define name="body">
<h:form>
<a4j:poll id="poll" interval="5000" enabled="true" action="..." render="poll,grid" />
</h:form>
<h:form>
<h:panelGrid columns="2" width="80%" id="grid">
sorry, details forgot ...
</h:panelGrid>
</h:form>
</ui:define>
</ui:composition>
</html>
But the question is, when I open my sub page with IE8 in the localhost computer, the a4j:poll can refresh data once, and then it never get data again. when I open the sub page with IE6 or IE8 in other computer, it works fine! Can anybody find the reason out? Thanks in advance!!
I change the
<h:head>
<!-- Mimic Internet Explorer 8 -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />
<title>My title</title>
</h:head>
to
<h:head>
<!-- Mimic Internet Explorer 7 -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
<title>My title</title>
</h:head>
and, it works now... but why?
I got it working with EmulateIE8. But probably when using it in an intranet way IE can be doing things differently.
Check your Browser mode and Document mode (press F12).
I got: IE9 / IE8 standards.
