Well with only a few hours to spare I finally got my myfaces talk updated and ready to go. Nothing like waiting for the last minute :-)

Well anyway without further verbage, here is the PDF and just for grins I also exported a quick time movie of the presentation here.

Have Fun

I've added a new custom component to the myfaces custom component list that will render a div. The changes are only in CVS at this point but don't be intimidated by that the ant script has targets to build the stuff you download. After getting the code just do an ant bin-release and you will be set.

You use it like this;

<x:div style="foo">
... other stuff here ...
</x:div>

With this and the h:outputFormat tag you can now do real layout without tables (at least I hope so :-).

getting the code

• cvs login :pserver:anoncvs-AT-cvs.apache-DOT-org:/home/cvspublic
• password anoncvs
• cvs co incubator-myfaces

Well MyFaces is in the Apache incubator. Not all the content from the original home is there but the CVS tree and mailing lists have moved.

Very Cool Stuff!

The MyFaces team is pleased to announce release the release of 1.0.2 Alpha.
